N2 - In this article, the author identifies key features of the strategy of Spain in the Arctic region. It focuses on the geographical features of the Spanish Arctic policy and draws parallels in some aspects with other states with similar status (France, Italy, Poland). The author defines the research, economic and political interests of the Spanish state in the Arctic, and also defines the main achievements and results. Great emphasis is placed on the importance of the scientific presence of Spain in the polar region, which allowed the kingdom to gain access to various international associations and institutions related to the Arctic. The main ideas of this study are the desire to show the Spanish Arctic policy as a successful version of the implementation of soft power, conducted through the concept of scientific diplomacy. The second important aspect is the relationship of the Arctic research process with the European integration process and Madrid's desire to combine the efforts of the European Union in the development and implementation of the Arctic strategy. Such actions find understanding among countries such as France, Italy and Poland.
