| Summary: | The article features the area of the Arctic which is the place of rivalry of countries. It occupies a special place in the Russian Federation’s energy and security policies. Moreover, the author draws a particular attention to features that today attract a growing interest in the Arctic area by the states claiming the right to it, and which include the United States, Canada, Den-mark, Norway and the Russian Federation. The most significant factors proving the importance of the Arctic include a large number of energy resources, which because of climate warming, are becoming more available, the size of the Arctic area and new transport routes. All these features make the Arctic an essential area of international engagement. |
