Summary/Abstract: Considering today's conditions, the international arena seems to be anarchic. In order to ensure the anarchic structuring order, there are regional and international organizational structures. There is a new area of this anarchic structuring and balance of power issue: The Arctica. When we examine the relations of the states in the Arctic region or with interest in the region; Since there is no higher authority to decide on the issues in the region, it is observed that the relations of the states in the region are carried out in an anarchic system. In the last seventy years, we have witnessed geopolitical shifts in which postworld wars global conflicts are transmitted regionally. The Arctic region, which is the new focus of global powers, has not yet met any terrorist activity, unlike other conflict areas. The Arctic region, where countries are trying to increase their cooperation, will be the new conflict area for states that want to keep energy in the future. In this study, we will examine America and Russia's policies on the Arctic, which are geo-strategically trying to create a new balance of power and are determined to redesign the bipolar system in this region through the power balance theory.
