Abstract
Since 2010, the Russian Federation has developed a practice of adopting and implementing the food security doctrine. The adoption of this normative legal act allowed us to establish a clear framework for the country’s food security criteria, and to specify the risks and threats to national food security. The adoption of a new version of the Russian food security doctrine in 2020 makes it possible to more purposefully influence potential threats to the country’s food security and solve a wider range of tasks for ensuring Russia’s food security in a comprehensive manner

Summary
Food security is an important and special aspect of national security. The role of food security in shaping the nation's security is determined by the fact that food security of the population is the Foundation of human well-being and strongly affects the citizen's assessment of the quality of life in his country. Food security in the new version of the Doctrine refers to the state of social and economic development of the country, which ensures the food independence of the Russian Federation, guarantees physical and economic accessibility for each citizen of the country of food products that meet the mandatory requirements, in volumes not less than the rational norms of consumption of food products necessary for an active and healthy lifestyle. It is interesting that the view of the updated food security Doctrine of Russia on the essence of rational norms of food consumption remained unchanged As before, this concept is interpreted as a diet, presented in the form of a set of products, including food products in volumes and ratios that meet modern scientific principles of optimal nutrition, taking into account the existing structure and traditions of nutrition of the majority of the population. This could not have a positive impact on the level of economic availability of food in the country
