Summary/Abstract |
SUMMER 2021 marked the 110th birth anniversary of Georges Pompidou, the second prime minister and second president of the Fifth Republic. The life of this energetic and exuberant man was cut short by a protracted and severe illness that prevented him from completing his seven-year presidential term. This exceptional man and his unconventional political career deserve much more attention than he receives in Russia.

Summary/Abstract |
JACQUES CHIRAC, the fifth President of the Fifth Republic, the most prominent French politician of the turn of the 21st century, during his 40-year long political career, climbed the ladder from young deputy of the National Assembly to wise and experienced President of the Republic occupying the highest state post for two terms. Twenty-five years ago, in 1995, when Chirac was elected president, the International Affairs journal published my article about him. Last fall, the famous politician died. This means that the time has come to sum up his achievements at the service of France.

Summary/Abstract |
THE ROOTS OF RELATIONS between France and Russia, countries that link the West and the East of the European continent, go deep into history. Since the beginning of the 18th century, the relations between the two states were becoming increasingly stable. So today we have every reason to say that Russia and France have been tied by strong knots of cooperation for 300 years now.
Relations between these two great European nations have not always been trouble-free. The countries now drew closer, now moved apart from each other under the influence of geopolitics, ideology, the economy, and many other circumstances. But for three centuries now, the cultural commonality felt by the two civilizations has been prompting them to converge.
