Abstract

The article is devoted to the relationship between the USSR and Norway at the time of the formation of coal mining in Svalbard before the Second World War. An analysis has been made of shifting the focus of attention of countries interested in the archipelago from the priorities of military security to resource aspects. Changes in the geopolitical status of the archipelago in the XX-XXI centuries are investigated. The article presents materials that characterize the development of relations between countries around Svalbard.
