Issues of protecting the rights of compatriots living abroad in the context of increasing Russophobia in Western politics

Abstract

As a result of the collapse of the USSR and the formation of new independent states, millions of compatriots found themselves separated from the Russian Federation by state borders. In many cases, they are forced to live and determine their future fate in a difficult political, economic, social, cultural and psychological situation and need help and support from both the States of permanent residence and Russia. It should be noted that the current Russian leadership pays tribute to the contribution of compatriots living abroad to the culture and economy of Russia. Currently, the problem of compatriots is a significant factor in the formation of Russia's relations with various countries and, above all, the CIS member states and the Baltic States. A state dialogue is organized with the Russian-speaking diaspora abroad, television programs are filmed about its best representatives, they become a positive example for the young generation of Russians. The article published below tells in detail about the features of this work with compatriots.
