Russian word "Pomorye" as unofficial named to the Region of Arkhangelsk.
Mikhail Revnivtsev, 14 Nov 2005

The islands Franz Joseph Land (Zemlâ Franca-Ĭosifa | Земля Франца-Йосифа) and New Land (Novaâ Zemlâ | Новая Земля) are part of Arkhagelsk Region, but not part of Nenetsia (which is an autonomous district dependent also from Arkhagelsk Region, and the mainland opposite to all of them). Other nearby islands, Kolguev and Baĭgaĉ — smaller and closer to the shore —, do belong to Nenetsia. According to my newer Russian atlases, all these islands are (very sparsely) inhabited exclusively by russians, except for New Land, that harbours a small nentsi community in its southern tip.

Regional flag

Until now, it was one of the few oblast's without the flag. Mikhail Revnivtsev reported to RussoVex the adoption of the flag on September 23, 2009.
It is so-called 'Andreyevskiy krest' (Cross of St.Andrew) or 'Andreyevskiy flag', charged with the shield of 2003 Arkhangelsk Arms featuring the Archangel Michael.

Mistaken report

Flag of Arkhangelhsk Region?
image by António Martins, 06 Jun 1999

White saltire on 1:2 red, as displayed at the Catalonian Vexillological Association’s on-line database on Russian flags, at www.acv.ptv.es/banrus/.
António Martins, 16 Nov 1998

Unlike many other reports, the very single reference ever found about this flag was the above mentioned ACV website, and re-reports spunning from it. I sincerely think it is a fake — there are just too many other examples of this situation for it to be an occasional misidentification or a genuine rarity.

Flags like this were used by several youth pro-president organizations, led by movement Идущие вместе (=Gone together).
