THE SPECIAL strategic partnership between Russia and India is a unique and complex architecture of interstate dialogue. It could not have been built without a solid, unified economic foundation: from energy and shipbuilding to space and agriculture. A significant part of this foundation is the Rosneft public joint-stock company, acting as a driver of bilateral cooperation.

THE USE of "soft power" instruments to strengthen the international position of our country has become increasingly important in the modern conditions of dynamic and contradictory global development. The achievements of Russian science and higher education have enjoyed considerable respect of the world academic community for almost three centuries and can play an important role in shaping a favorable image of Russia that would be appealing to the international community. In his Message to the Federal Assembly on April 21, 2021, Russian President Vladimir Putin reemphasized the critical importance of science in the modern world and outlined specific steps for the further development of science and higher education [1]. Decree No. 812 of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin "On holding the Year of Science and Technology in the Russian Federation" [2], dated December 25, 2020, and ongoing work to implement it have created a solid foundation for promoting the

THE SUCCESSFUL landing of British and American troops in Sicily in the summer of 1943 and the further course of Allied military operations against Nazi Germany and its satellites in the Mediterranean brought major political changes in the region. A coup on July 25, 1943, removed fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, who was replaced with Marshal Pietro Badoglio by order of King Victor Emmanuel III. The new government capitulated to the Allies; it severed all relations with Nazi Germany and on October 13, 1943, declared war on it. That same day, the Anti-Hitler coalition of the Soviet Union, the US, and Great Britain recognized Italy as a cobelligerent.

MAJOR political changes are currently taking place in West and Central Africa. France is losing ground in the African countries that used to be its colonies, although it still considers them its indisputable sphere of influence. And this is not a one-way street. The African countries themselves are trying to move away from traditional dependence on a single donor, sponsor or patron and to expand their cooperation horizons.

RELATIONS between Moldova and Romania have a fairly long history. It is not entirely correct to say that Moldovans and Romanians are the same people, although some politicians in the Republic of Moldova (RM), including its current president, Maia Sandu, try to present the situation precisely in this light. But detailed analysis leads to the conclusion that the Moldovans are a nation with their own history and culture that are by no means identical to Romanian history and culture. As for the population of Transnistria, it has virtually no relation to Romania. After all, most of the territory of Bessarabia (the historical name of modern Moldova) consisted of lands located between the Black Sea and the Dniester, Prut, and Danube Rivers. Today, this territory is part of the modern Republic of Moldova and southern Ukraine.

THE CORE tasks of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) include maintaining peace and security in member states and helping them prevent or settle crises or conflicts that may arise in their territory or in their relationships with one another. OSCE field operations in vulnerable member countries are an important tool for the organization to carry out these tasks. Any such operation is naturally conditional on the consent of the host country and requires the approval of all OSCE member states.

THE TERM "politics of history" emerged as a category of political practice first in the 1980s in Germany and then in the 2000s in Poland. Russian historian Alexey Miller comments that the politics of history is a special set of methods involving the use of state administrative and financial resources in the field of history and politics of memory in the interests of the ruling elite [10, p. 19]. In practical terms, the politics of history is a political tool that aims to rally the nation around a historical narrative. In general, as the German historian Jan Assmann emphasizes, the politics of history studies public debates and political and administrative decisionmaking, and its essential characteristic is the adoption of normative legal acts

UZBEKISTAN is a country with its own rich traditions, history, and culture that are closely intertwined with Russia's. The Russian Empire began to move into the region and develop it in the 1860s, and evidence of a common history still exists in various parts of the country. There have been some controversial issues in our relations that are connected, in the opinion of certain Uzbek scholars, to the Russian conquest of Tashkent and other regions and their subsequent incorporation into the Russian Empire. A biased approach toward the common past with Russia and attempts to reject it were especially pronounced during the presidency of Islam Karimov after Uzbekistan gained independence in 1991. The "big brother" policy that Moscow continued to pursue with respect to former Soviet republics and their leaders may have had something to do with that. The personal motives of Uzbekistan's first president and his entourage may also have been a factor.

TODAY, the world economy is moving toward mega-regionalization, which implies "drawing" regional and macroregional subsystems into a single mega-regional system. The process began and is unfolding under the influence of political and economic integration associated with increasing returns to scale from reduced barriers to cooperation and much more favorable production opportunities. This trend is manifest in the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) in the Asia-Pacific Region (APR). Talks on the Transatlantic Free Trade Agreement and a free trade agreement between the European Union (EU)

RUSSIA occupies the Eurasian position on the world map, which is why economic cooperation in this area is so important. But our Western neighbors traditionally play a more significant role in our country's economy. This means that Europe is one of the most important areas in our economic diplomacy.

ON DECEMBER 8, 1991, the heads of three Union republics - Boris Yeltsin (Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic), Leonid Kravchuk (Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic), and Stanislav Shushkevich (Belarusian Soviet Socialist Republic) - signed the Belavezha Accords, dissolving the Soviet Union.1 That document was unprecedented in terms of international practice and its socioeconomic consequences for the once union state. It was followed two weeks later by the Alma-Ata Declaration, which eight other republics joined, and then by the resignation of Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. Many experts consider that truly epochal event the final act of the drama that Russian President Vladimir Putin described as "the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century"2 - i.e., the collapse of the Soviet Union and a new reference point in the history of modern Russia, which, despite its turbulent centuries-old history, found itself overnight in a drastically altered political and economic reality. This December, many will recall those seemingly distant events in order to consider the main results of the three decades of Russia's foreign policy development as an independent state, which, like any person, goes through stages of development: childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, and maturity.

DESPITE the multidirectional trends evident in the modern planetary landscape, overall, its emerging architecture is tending toward interconnectedness. The new civilizational image is universality and indivisibility. The world is becoming so interconnected that we can talk about a different level of scientific reflection expressed in Parag Khanna's vision of possibly establishing "Connectography" as an academic discipline, with the maxim "Connectivity is destiny" serving as its refrain

| Summary/Abstract |
MODERN Russian historians and journalists have been paying a great deal of attention to the Ukrainian national movement in the former Soviet Union. A lot of research has been done of the emergence of Ukrainian statehood; generous territorial transfers to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic from the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) and East European countries; the Ukrainification of former Malorossiya [Little Russia]; and the activities of Ukrainian radical nationalists before, during, and after World War II. Various aspects of the revival of nationalism in Ukraine in the 1990s are also on historians' radar.
