A POTENTIAL military conflict between China and the US over Taiwan as a result of either its forced "unification" or its unilateral declaration of independence remains a focus of observers and analysts all over the globe. Throughout 2021, news feeds contained alarming reports about the growing activity of the Chinese Air Force in Taiwan's air defense zone and military exercises simulating the prevention of the capture of an unnamed island during US military maneuvers. Both capitals are exchanging harsh warning statements.

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.

GEOPOLITICAL constructs are a relatively new phenomenon in global political practice, and even today they are often created spontaneously. One of the most complex, contradictory, and ambiguous geopolitical constructs is the Indo-Pacific Region (IPR), or the Indo-Pacific, as it is known for short. It entered global political discourse in 2007, with the publication of an article by Gurpreet Khurana on sea lanes of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. According to some experts, the term "Indo-Pacific" has recently become a buzzword widely used by politicians and political analysts to show that they keep abreast of current trends, but it also helps perpetuate the Indo-Pacific idea

| Summary/Abstract |
THE IDEA of using information and communication technologies (ICT) as a crucial means of achieving political goals is one of the most relevant issues in modern politics and political studies. Some of the main aspects elucidated by studies on this topic are the formation of a global information society, technologies of information wars, and many other issues around ensuring the state's information security, including ways to push the Russian Federation out of the foreign information space. Until recently, Russian historiography did not pay adequate attention to the tactics and methodology used by states to achieve their foreign policy goals by manipulating public consciousness through modern ICT. Olga Melnikova's monograph Global Cybersecurity and the Manipulation of Public Opinion [in Russian]* aims to shed further light on this topic.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE HISTORY of international relations has seen many examples of nations that, on the verge of tectonic geopolitical shifts, followed a "bloc mentality" and sought to create alliances against third countries. Moscow, however, in accordance with its centuries-old traditions of diplomacy, has always acted contrary to such trends and preferred alliances aimed at development and ensuring peace and stability, refraining from interfering in the affairs of other sovereign countries or undermining their national foundations. In making that choice, Russia was guided not only and not so much by the nobility of its intentions, but primarily by the principles of realpolitik - namely, practical considerations of uniting as many countries as possible to effectively tackle common challenges and threats.

IN HIS classic book On War, the eminent 19th century German military theorist Carl von Clausewitz generalized the experience of the Napoleonic wars: "The art of war ... makes War of all branches of human activity the most like a gambling game."1 It seems that since the time when Clausewitz defined war as "the continuation of policy by other means," the nature of world politics has not changed in real terms: brinkmanship, bluff, risky moves and, alas, cheating. History teaches us that the more ambitious the ruling elite, the more they tend to overstep the bounds of the permissible.

IN THE 21st century, the politics of memory is becoming even more relevant as a tool of international relations. This is amply confirmed by Japan, where the past traditionally serves as a tool for legitimizing the political and social order and largely shapes foreign policy principles. But this past contains many dark chapters that stir up conflicts with its neighbors. Many of them are rooted in the distant past, when Japan aggressively spread its influence in Asia. Japanese expansion caused thousands of deaths.

NOVEMBER 2021 marks the 10-year anniversary of the decision to establish the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC).1 A month before this landmark event, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in an article in the newspaper Izvestia, described the Eurasian integration project as a "milestone not only for our three countries, but for all countries in the post-Soviet space" [3]. That idea was put into practice: Armenia and Kyrgyzstan joined the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) as full-fledged members in 2015, Moldova received EAEU observer status in 2018, and Uzbekistan did in 2020.

RECENTLY, the Islamic world has seen the growth of fundamentalism - an extreme form of Islamism that rejects democracy as such and uproots it wherever it sprouts. Some Salafist organizations are limited and local, some rely on outside support, while others are broad in scope and span the entire Muslim world. Analysis of the activities of Islamist organizations is complicated by the fact that unrelated groups often operate within their framework. Salafis number about 50 million worldwide and are active in 80 countries. However, it should be noted that Salafi jihadists number no more than 10 million, which is just 1% of the world's Muslims.

IN RECENT YEARS, diplomatic efforts by Moscow have created a solid framework for relations between Russia and Latin America. It is especially significant that both sides share essentially the same values and cooperation principles and have political strategies based on the defense of national sovereignty; compliance with international law, including the principle of noninterference in internal affairs; adherence to multilateral diplomacy; a balance of interests in international relations; and the determination to strengthen international security and stability [19]. Latin American states, despite the various priorities of their political regimes, follow the pragmatic tactics of supporting a polycentric world order and multilateral cooperation based on principles enshrined in the UN Charter and in other international documents.

THE EUROPEAN UNION is actively involved in developing the world ocean. Today, it positions itself not only as a consumer of "ocean resources," but also as a leader of sustainable development and a "global actor" playing an independent role in shaping the system of international ocean governance [1]. The EU's strategic maritime interests are multidimensional and primarily associated with ensuring its security [2:1, 2]. Its maritime interests lie at the junction of overlapping areas of activity, including political, economic, functional, sectoral, spatial, and administrative. Therefore, the implementation of its Maritime Policy is of particular importance to the EU.
