Why couldn't they be looked up remotely? Start at the gnupg wiki page.

Please change your topic title to something that actually describes your problem. Also, use code tags for terminal output.

@WorMzy updated
@Scimmia I know how work gnupg and my configuration keyserver pgp.mit.edu is well.
I can'd find this keys on server. They aren't exist

They do exist. Did you change the server for pacman in /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/ as well?

This post solved this exact issue for me just now.
I ran

pacman -S archlinux-keyring

to reinstall the keyring package.

Re: [Solved] Upgrade problem with GPG Key

That will work around it, but it doesn't solve the issue of gpg not being able to use a keyserver.
