The Impacts of Small Games on Sino-American Relations

Small incidents between superpowers may inadvertently affect their diplomatic behaviors, like the Butterfly Effect, pushing their international relations in another direction. This is the case with "Pelosi's Visit to Taiwan" and the "U.S.-China Balloon Incident" on the Sino-American relationship. As the most complicated bilateral relationship in the world today, the reaction of the two superpowers will have a significant impact on the entire world landscape. Despite the historical legacy and the different nature of their societies, which have led to differences in a number of areas, the two sides continue to seek opportunities for cooperation in various fields. The evolving Sino-US relations with peace as the main theme should be trusted by the whole world. This paper analyzes these two small events by using the theoretical knowledge of Realism, Constructivism, and International Political Economy in the Science of International Politics to explore the implied meanings behind them and the reasons why the two superpowers responded in this way.

The Arctic Region as an Object of Geopolitical Contradictions

Over the past thirty years, the world community has increased interest in the Arctic, new opportunities are emerging due to global warming, and many states have seen new prospects for their own development and strengthening their influence in the world. But non-Arctic states will have to prove the validity of their interests in order to get the right to participate in decision-making in the region. The results of many scientific studies indicate large oil and gas deposits, as well as reserves of many other types of minerals, respectively, interested countries will need to confirm the legitimacy of their rights to extract resources. With the melting of glaciers, new transport hubs are opening up, such as the NSR and NWP, which Russia and Canada seek to control, and where the United States and other countries insist that the NSR and NWP should have the status of international straits. Tensions are growing around the island of Svalbard, although the Paris Convention on Svalbard was signed in 1920, which implies Norway's sovereignty over the island, other countries have retained the right to conduct economic activities on the island, and Norway is trying to challenge this right in various ways. This paper examines hypothetical areas of cooperation and disagreements between stakeholders in the Arctic. The article describes the structure of relations between actors in the Arctic region, their problems and national interests, as well as cooperation in various fields. So countries that usually oppose each other in many regions can cooperate, sometimes even having contradictions in the Arctic, which ultimately allows us to see how many states can simultaneously converge and disagree on many issues in the Arctic. What makes this region unique in international relations.

Turkish Ideological Influence in Russian Regions: The Turkic Factor

The article underlines the importance of effective implementation of the state national policy for the stability and sustainability of the state. This issue is particularly relevant in the context of such large ethno-linguistic communities as the Turkic peoples, which are vulnerable to external influence objects. The authors consider the issue of foreign influence on the territorial units of the Russian Federation through economic and humanitarian spheres on the example of the activities of the Republic of Turkey. Within the framework of the ideology of pan-Turkism, the Turkic-speaking peoples, especially those living on the territory of the Russian Federation, are of particular importance to Turkey. Ankara justifies interference in the internal affairs of sovereign states with the idea of building a “Turkic world” under the auspices of Turkey. The article reflects the activities of Turkish organizations, as well as the specifics of economic and humanitarian cooperation in the Republics of Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Chuvashia, Crimea, Altai, Sakha (Yakutia), Tyva, Khakassia. The analysis of open sources and official data revealed the degree of intensity of the Turkish presence in the Turkic-speaking regions. In the Volga Federal District, the level of Turkish influence as well as cooperation in various fields is quite high, especially in Tatarstan and Bashkortostan. The Republic of Chuvashia remains the least susceptible to Turkish destructive activity. The informational impact through the pro-Turkish media is mainly observed in the Republic of Crimea. In Altai, Tuva and Khakassia, after 2015, the activity of interaction with Turkey in the humanitarian and economic spheres has decreased to some extent. However, the designation of the factor of external influence and the development of effective measures to counteract it should become one of the most important topics of the new Strategy of the state national policy after 2025.

Implementation of the strategy of internationalization of higher education as a «soft power» tool of the state

Introduction. The following article analyzes the interpretations of the concept of «soft power» implemented in the field of Russian higher education. In connection with the discussion in scientific circles of the ambivalence of the concept of «soft power» from the moment of its appearance and in the subsequent period, various interpretations of opposite and complementary concepts with the word «power» are given here. The components and functions of «soft power» reflected in the documents and concepts of the state»s foreign policy are considered. Purpose setting. At present, when political and economic sanctions have also changed the landscape of international educational cooperation, the possibilities of the «soft power» tools of our state have been significantly decreased. Methodology and methods of the study. As a tool for promoting cultural values and ideals, higher education accumulates opportunities for cultural, scientific, technical, socio-political and economic impact on the individual and society. Results. The communication space of Russian universities will be able to integrate a new rational discourse through delivering various educational exchange programmes and cultural, educational projects, with the involvement of modern information communication technologies. The implementation of this task requires the strategic development of the internationalization of higher education. Conclusion. Cooperation in various fields of science and technology remains an important tool for improving international political stability and mutual understanding. Germany is an example of successful development and promotion of national ideas and interests, i.e. increasing the «weight» of the state in the international arena through education. At the same time, the main function of «soft power» is performed in latent form, when the influence of the state is not straightforward, but hidden.

CHARACTERISTICS AND DEVELOPMENT TRENDS OF CHINA-UKRAINE ECONOMIC AND TRADE COOPERATION UNDER THE “BELT AND ROAD” INITIATIVE

With the continuous promotion of the “Belt and Road” initiative, China's economic and trade cooperation with countries along the route has achieved rich results. China and Ukraine are two important economies in the world. As one of the important countries along the “Belt and Road”, Ukraine actively responded to China's proposed “Belt and Road” initiative in December 2013 and became the first European country to announce its support for the initiative. Ukraine is located in eastern Europe, connecting Europe and Asia, and is an important country for the “Belt and Road” to reach Europe. Ukraine has always insisted on achieving all-round, multi-field cooperation with China. In recent years, the two countries have achieved fruitful results in infrastructure, agriculture, energy, high-tech, and investment fields. Since 2019, China has become Ukraine’s largest trading partner. The COVID-19 pandemic and the political situation have greatly affected the trade between the two countries, with a sharp drop in trade volume and stagnation in some areas. In the future, the two countries can strengthen strategic alignment and optimize trade policies under the framework of the “Belt and Road” initiative, deepen cooperation in various fields, especially in high-tech fields, and comprehensively improve the level of trade. This article mainly analyzes the current situation of China-Ukraine economic and trade cooperation, examines its characteristics, and explores the trend of future cooperation development between China and Ukraine under the current international situation, and provides future strategies based on the current environment.

Under these conditions, the role of translation as a means of serving the socio-political, economic, scientific, cultural, aesthetic and other relations of peoples is extremely growing.

Azerbaijan-Kazakhstan relations as one of the components of the Caspian vector of Eurasian integration

The object of the study is the international relations of Azerbaijan at the junction of the XX and XXI centuries. The subject of the study is the relationship between Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan after the disintegration of the USSR. The author dwells in detail on the bilateral relations between Baku and Astana during the presidency of Heydar and Ilham Aliyev. The greatest attention is paid to cooperation in various fields within the framework of Trans-Caucasian logistics projects through the prism of involving Caspian partners in them. This perspective allows us to note that Kazakhstan has gained an important "logistics hub" in Azerbaijan, and Azerbaijan fount in Kazakhstan a partner. The research methods are content analysis, discourse analysis and historical research methods. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that Azerbaijan's foreign policy is reflected quite briefly in Russian historiography, especially in the framework of bilateral relations with the countries of Central Asia. The attention of domestic researchers, as a rule, focuses on relations with Russia, as well as other countries of the South Caucasus and Turkey, however, it should be noted that Azerbaijani-Kazakh relations became one of the foundations of the Caspian vector of Eurasian integration at the turn of the century. The main conclusion of the author is that the Azerbaijani-Kazakh relations allowed the two countries not only to solve their own geopolitical problems, but also to qualitatively improve the Caspian vector of Eurasian integration, harmoniously supplementing it with the "West-East" direction. It should be noted not only the intensity of contacts, but also their productivity, a reflection of this is the involvement of Kazakhstan in logistics projects in the South Caucasus, participation in which allows the Central Asian country to have another "corridor" to the world ocean. Probably, the bilateral relations under consideration were the most productive in the region between the post-Soviet countries, with the exception of bilateral relations in which Russia participated.

Формирование лингвокультурной компетенции как неотъемлемая составляющая процесса профессиональной подготовки преподавателя иностранного языка

Importance. The appeal to the anthropocentric paradigm of scientific knowledge at the turn of 20th–21st centuries alongside with the active development of international cooperation in various fields require updating the content and objectives of linguistic education through the integrated study of languages and cultures. However, the problems of development of the linguocultural competence as an integral part of professional training of a foreign language teaching specialist currently need more detailed study. The aim of the research is to characterise the concept of “linguocultural competence” and to consider the methods for the development of the competence in the context of professional training of a future teacher. Materials and Methods. The analysis of the scientific and methodical literature that served as the research material, the systematization and comparative analysis of approaches to the interpretation of the characteristics and content of the “linguocultural competence” concept, the design of educational activities in the context of the development of linguocultural competence among students of language specialties made up a set of methods used in this work. Results and Discussion. The existing approaches to the interpretation of the term “linguocultural competence” and similar definitions of “linguoculturological competence”, “cultural and linguistic competence” are studied. A definition relevant for use in the process of professional training of a foreign language teacher is proposed, as well as a description of some methods of work on the development of linguocultural competence among students of language specialties. Conclusion. The integration of relevant cultural and linguistic aspects into the content of linguistic education contributes to improving the quality of professional training of students – future teachers of a foreign language. The development of linguocultural competence among students of language specialties is a prerequisite for the successful implementation of their professional activities.

Сравнительно-правовой анализ Конституционных судов Российской Федерации и Республики Казахстан: процессуальный аспект

The authors of this work made an attempt to demonstrate the differences and similarities in the status, composition, structure and powers of the bodies of constitutional justice of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan. Such a comparative legal analysis is in demand by legal science in connection with the significant constitutional reform that took place in Kazakhstan in 2022, as a result of which the Constitutional Court replaced the Constitutional Council. In addition, the Constitutional Laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On the Prosecutor's Office" and "On the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Republic of Kazakhstan" were adopted. In 2020, the Basic Law of the Russian Federation also underwent significant changes. We should not forget about the similarity of the paths of development of constitutionalism in Russia and Kazakhstan, which is due to the Soviet past, close proximity and close cooperation in various fields of activity. The result of the study was the conclusion about the proximity of the Russian and Kazakhstani models of constitutional justice. Despite this, there are quite unique norms that are characteristic of the constitutional acts of each country. Attention is drawn to the differences in the status of constitutional justice bodies, as well as differences in their competence. The procedure for the formation of the Constitutional Courts of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan is different, the issues of ensuring their activities are resolved in different ways. Differences are established in the subject composition that enjoys the right to apply to the Constitutional Court of their state. Identified special conditions for filing a complaint with citizens of Russia and Kazakhstan in the national bodies of constitutional justice.

Development of the Historical Status of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization

Shanghai Cooperation Organization was established after the Cold War. 2022 marks the 20th anniversary of the signing of the SCO Charter, during which the SCO has withstood the test of drastic changes in the international situation and achieved remarkable development results. Not only is the mechanism construction progressing smoothly, but also exchanges and cooperation in various fields have achieved remarkable results. However, the results of economic cooperation are not yet significant, the international status needs to be improved, the development model is still unclear, and the non-governmental and social exchanges and exchanges are lacking. The SCO is a system that continues to evolve incrementally as it continues to refine its development process, while continuing to work on common political and security goals, finding the best mechanisms to expand economic ties, and deepening cultural and humanitarian engagement. Eventually, with the development and improvement of cooperation forms and mechanisms within the framework of the SCO and the Eurasian Economic Union, the necessary institutional foundations will gradually mature, which will eventually help to further deepen the interaction with Southeast Asian countries.

Restructuring of Multilateralism and Inclusive Development of the SCO

Unlike the multilateral institutions of the past, formed by hegemons in accordance with their interests, the SCO multilateral format has given a new impetus to inclusive multilateral regional cooperation. In order to promote inclusive cooperation in Eurasia, the SCO member states have formulated strategic plans for cooperation in the main subregions and key areas of organization’s activities. New SCO plans to intensify cooperation take into account the principle of inclusiveness, and promote a system interests compatibility between members. Taking into consideration the relatively vague and "blurred" forms of cooperation between the member states, an increase in the SCO membership can create both new challenges and contribute to the emergence of new formats of interaction. Thus, the introduction of new forms of small multilateralism may become relevant for increasing the effectiveness of the SCO. Cooperation within the framework of new formats of small multilateralism should be established in accordance with the political preferences and readiness of the SCO Member States in order to increase the effectiveness of intra-organizational interaction. Institutional flexibility in pragmatic cooperation brings mutually beneficial results and has great potential for extending the format of such cooperation to a wide range of issues. An inclusive approach and multilateral cooperation within the framework of the SCO helps to strengthen cooperation in various fields and contribute to the creation of a democratic and fair political and economic environment. It seems that China and Russia, as the leading powers in the SCO, will be interested in promoting new formats of cooperation and reforming the regional system of interaction. The combination of classical large-scale multilateralism with small forms of multilateral cooperation within the SCO will help to deal with the current difficulties in regional governance and improve the effectiveness of the organization.

Analysis on the Market influencing factors of Laos attracting Chinese Enterprises to start a Business in Laos
