Abstract: In the conditions of growing geopolitical status of the Artic, one could clearly see a dangerous tendency to the militarization of the region. It is expressed in growing military presence and in the activities of the number of states as well as the NATO in the Arctic, modernization of the armed forces, which are located in the Arctic, and the relevant military infrastructure, active use of marine military fl eets for the support of economic interests, as well as the tendency to form new military and political blocks and coalitions. The formation of a specifi c regional regime of control over arms and development of trust measures could have been important priorities in the international cooperation in the Arctic region. Keywords: political science, national security, militarization, Arctic, Russia, NATO, regional security, global security, the Northern Europe, the USA, Canada.
