On October 1, the regional powers - the government and the Parliament of Catalonia - carried out a referendum on independence from Spain. The Spanish government (that had gone to all lengths to prevent it) declared its results null and void. Prime Minister of Spain Mariano Rajoy dismissed it as a "democratically deplorable spectacle.

For instance, foreign students who study in Australia and number between 480,000 and 520,000, about 30% of them Chinese, are the source of considerable state revenues for Australia, which grow by between 12% and 15% a year.1 New Zealand has become another leader in the world education market.2 Various studies have attempted to find out why Australia and New Zealand are such successful exporters of education. Those studies analyzed those countries' education advertising policies, adjustment principles for education programs and ways of simplifying visa formalities as measures that have stimulated young people all over the world, primarily in China and India, to seek paid education in Australia or New Zealand. The fact that both these countries are English-speaking and their education systems are associated with British classical education is their chief marketing advantage in Asia.

WITH ITS ECONOMIES SHAKEN by financial woes and its system of fundamental values - democracy, the rule of law, and human rights - watered down, the European Union attaches special importance to cultural affairs, seeing them as the core of its foreign policy and the basis for its social and economic development.1 Before 1992, cultural and creative industries in the EU had been under the exclusive jurisdiction of member states. However, after the Treaty of Maastricht was signed, cultural policy became the prerogative of EU authorities, speeded up the revision of the EU's image, was one of the motives for reconsidering the European unity idea, which was rapidly losing its popularity, and, in a sense, counterbalanced European integration projects.

Armen Oganesyan, Editor-in-Chief of International Affairs: Vitaly Vyacheslavovich, I get the impression that the correlation of forces in the Middle East is changing. For example, the American business news agency Bloomberg says: "If until recently the leaders of the Middle Eastern nations came only to Washington to solve their problems, America's influence in the Middle East is now noticeably weaker." How can this be, and why?

AS THE MEMBERS of the alliance never tire of saying, the NATO countries are conducting the largest buildup of the bloc's collective military forces since the end of the Cold War. Along with the programmed increase in military expenditures, the expansion of the alliance's military potential, and the rise in the number of forward-based troops along Russia's borders on the territory of the East European countries, the scale of military activity is expanding, and facilities for the stockpiling of weapons, heavy vehicles, and other materiel are being created or brought up to NATO standards.

CHINA became a defining topic of Donald Trump's election campaign, since it was closely associated with the basic elements of both his foreign and domestic policy. Whether directly or indirectly, China affected globalization, its pluses and minuses for America, U.S. jobs and industry, the conditions of American business's competition on both the domestic and foreign markets, the ensuring of free trade, the revival of depressed industrial regions, the leaking of technological and strategic secrets, key elements of military strategy, and the United States' role in the world and geoeconomics.

Armen Oganesyan, Editor-in-Chief of International Affairs: This year we are observing the anniversaries of two Russian revolutions. In this context, people often talk about reconciliation. There are different views with regard to what happened then and there are different assessments of the personalities who were the driving forces behind these revolutions, their heroes. What is your take on this?

FAKE NEWS played a very limited role in the presidential campaign in the United States that brought Donald Trump to the White House yet the despair of the Western liberal world attracted a lot of attention to this phenomenon.

IN 1816-1817, the flag of the Russian Empire was waving on the westernmost of the Hawaiian Islands, Kauai. The word "Don" appeared on the Kauai map as a new name for what had been the Hanapepe River. Three Russian forts, which were named Elizabeth, Alexander and Barclay, emerged at key strategic points on the island - at the mouth of the Waimea River in the south and on the shore of the picturesque Hanalei Bay in the north.

NEW EUROPEAN INTEGRATION coincided with an intensive phase of the globalization process that was a stimulating and driving force in the evolution of the European Union. Today, the debates about the crisis of globalization and the troubling phenomena evident in European integration are occurring almost simultaneously. Polemics are raging in the European media as to who is to blame for the fact that globalization, which has brought a lot of positive elements to world development, has not become a universal and, most importantly, harmonizing model for the world at large.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, friends, welcome to Budapest to the Sixth International Conference "Russia and Europe: Topical Issues in Contemporary International Journalism," organized by the influential Russian journal International Affairs. I believe the venue for today's event was not chosen by accident. After all, geographically, Hungary is at the junction of Eastern and Western Europe.

TODAY'S SOCIETY undergoes processes that, besides exceptional dynamism, are marked by a new kind of complexity as a result of interaction between social systems, subsystems and actors. Economics increasingly manifest themselves through politics - something that the founders of Marxism pointed out a long time ago, - and there are more and more spheres where the humanities overlap with politics. Issues that are rooted in the past have become a routine technology for political rivalry. So has the languages issue as a means of domination in a specific sociocultural space and as a mechanism for the pursuit of specific political interests.

THE GREAT RUSSIAN REVOLUTION echoed far and wide. The revolution of February 1917 catastrophically undermined Russia's international positions; the revolution of October 1917 shifted its foreign policy vector by pushing it out of the coalitions trapped in World War I. The centenary of the events that changed the course of Russian and world history has given us another chance to ponder on how they affected the postwar international order known as the Versailles-Washington system.

Armen Oganesyan, Editor-in-Chief of International Affairs: Valery Nikolayevich, the Institute for the U.S. and Canadian Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences will be 50 years old in December 2017. It was created as a consulting and analytical center, a think tank focusing on the United States and Canada and working directly with the country's foreign-policy makers. To what extent do the authorities today take the Institute's opinion into account?
