The article studies two closely related modern problems such as nuclear deterrence and nuclear security. The aim of the study is to develop and substantiate an Axiom for the scientific field of knowledge about coupled dynamic assessments of nuclear deterrence possibility and the need for guaranteed nuclear safety in the interests of the Russian Arctic region sustainable development. Actual aspects of ensuring nuclear safety and nuclear deterrence in modern conditions in the interests of the Russian Arctic region sustainable development and the Russian national security have been considered. The differentiation of countries and results of comparing the USA and Russia in the light of nuclear safety have been presented. Three stages of nuclear protection have been identified, within the framework of which it is necessary to solve issues of ensuring nuclear safety. An axiomatic approach to ensuring nuclear safety and nuclear deterrence in the interests of the Russian Arctic region sustainable development has been presented, and possibilities of its use described. Special, universal, and general scientific methods of scientific cognition were used in the work.
