We study the local exact controllability problem for the Navier-Stokes equations that describe an incompressible fluid flow in a bounded domain with control distributed in an arbitrary fixed subdomain. The result that we obtain in this paper is as follows. Suppose that we have a given stationary point of the Navier-Stokes equations and our initial condition is sufficiently close to it. Then there exists a locally distributed control such that in a given moment of time the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations coincides with this stationary point.
