On the basis of the case-study method, the authors analyse the international community's main goals and objectives in the settlement of the Afghan conflict. Through the lens of documents of international conferences on Afghanistan, the development stages, participants' motives, contradictions and constraints in the development of the Afghan diplomatic process are highlighted. The path from the romantic-idealistic to the pragmatic-realistic approach in resolving the Afghan conflict by the international coalition is traced. The authors come to the following conclusions during the study. First, there was an application of the “western model” of state building in Afghanistan at the first “romantic” stage from 2001 to 2006. However, ignoring the specifics of the country of Afghanistan helped create only a visibility of democratic institutions and of the rule of law. The emphasis on forceful methods of resolving the Afghan conflict excluded influential social actors from the political process. At the same time, it was not possible to create a combat-ready national army of Afghanistan, and maintaining security in the country became the responsibility of the international military. This situation discredited the new authorities of Afghanistan. Second, there was an attempt to ensure sustainable economic development as the basis for the reconstruction of Afghanistan at the second “transitional” stage from 2006 to 2009. However, the asymmetry in favor of military spending, the bureaucratic nature of economic assistance mechanisms, and the conniving attitude to financial control mechanisms failed to reverse the negative trends in the country's socioeconomic development. The high intensity of clashes nullified the minimum achievements of socioeconomic development. Moreover, the increase in losses among international military contingents, the reputation losses of the newly created democratic institutions forced the international community to qualitatively review approaches to the Afghan diplomatic process. Third, the international community embarked on an honorary exit from Afghanistan at the third “pragmatic” stage from 2009 to 2014. The stake was made on a gradual transit of responsibility from the international coalition to the leadership of Afghanistan while keeping the image of international structures. The self-reliance of Afghanistan was becoming the main ideological pattern of this stage. Planning horizons of the Afghan conflict were shifted for an indefinite 2024. The international financial obligations became a kind of pay for distancing Afghan peacebuilding. However, international financial assistance remains a significant way of financial flow into the country and is an important factor in maintaining power in Kabul. The Afghan peace process, as a collective security project of the international community, began to break up into individual national initiatives by global actors.

Mirziyoyev was elected. The author analyzes the adopted strategic documents and the first diplomatic steps of the new President. It is noted that Uzbekistan managed to take a profitable diplomatic position in a short period as a transmission actor in the development of Chinese transport and logistics projects through the Eurasian space. The author emphasizes that the foreign policy tasks of Uzbekistan is closely tied to the needs of socio-economic development. The active economic diplomacy of the PRC is forcing Tashkent to look for proportionate economic balances in cooperation with other countries of the region. Additionally, the author identifies a change in the quality of interstate relations of Uzbekistan with neighboring countries, which largely occurs under pressure from the cross-border imperative of the Chinese project. Key words: Uzbekistan, foreign policy, Central Asia, socio-economic ...

The Anglo-Austro-Russian team diplomacy, with the active peacemaking role of the Russian emperor, succeeded in creating the first working pan-European order, and the proposed institutions and principles ensured governable and peaceful relations in Europe for almost a hundred years within the framework of the Vienna system of international relations.

The integration process is perceived through the concept of positive and negative integration based on works of Jan Tinbergen. The goal is to show the role of interregional organizations such as the European Union (the EU), the Eurasian Economic Union (the EEU), the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (the SCO) and the Collective Security Treaty Organization (the CSTO) in promoting Central Asia as the whole region. Such cooperation falls within the scope of multipolar or multi-faceted approach pursued by Central Asian states in foreign affairs and aimed to accomplish medium-term tasks. The authors examine the period of the last three years-2013-2016-that can be considered as a new period from the point of new international conditions such as the world economy downturn and the raise of terrorist activity. The correlation between objectives set by states in the organizations founding agreement, the strategies within each particular integration project, and the joint statements and practical implementation is explained. The obstacles and prospect of such integration are defined as well as the role of non-regional states acting within the region.

The authors focus on analysis of detailed and pragmatic fundamentals of political drivers of Islamic countries' implementation of the foreign policy course in Central Asia. The work focuses on the identification of the idealistic and pragmatic motives of Turkey, Iran and Saudi Arabia during the implementation of the Central Asian vector of foreign policy. It may be noted that in the last decade of the 20th century geopolitical motives occupied a dominant position in the foreign policy of Islamic countries. During the 1990s Saudi Arabia formed two lines of cooperation with Central Asian countries. The first line is " geo-religious " as promotion the development of the religious revival of the peoples of Central Asia and their accession to the global Muslim community led by SA. The second line is economic as rising Arab capital and business on the regional markets in order to advance the interests of Saudi Arabia. Iran's foreign policy in Central Asia proceeded from three major reasons. " Geo-economic " is the development of economic projects in the field of transport and energy for the unification of markets of Central Asia and the Persian Gulf. " Civilizational " is the reactualization of the historical involvement of the peoples of Central Asia in the Persian cultural and historical values. " Real-political " is the formation of a loyal regime of interaction with Russia and China in the region as a counterweight to the Western anti-Iranian policy. Turkey's foreign policy in Central Asia was based on economic interests conserning the Caspian and Central Asian hydrocarbons and regional lidership as head of Turkic peoples kinship project. The Muslim powers have shown the greatest activity and consistency in the implementation of the Central Asian direction among all international actors in the region. This renewed Islamic interest to the problems of Central Asia promoted to forming The Central Asia regional complex with own agenda in Post-Cold war world.

The macroeconomic indicators of the quality of the external economic infrastructure and the effectiveness of state regulation at the national level are estimated. On the basis of the situational approach, a comparative retrospective analysis of the doctrinal sources of the Novosibirsk region and statistical data in the sphere of foreign trade is conducted, which allows to define the Novosibirsk region as a region with low efficiency of state administration in the sphere of foreign economic activity. The paper notes the most problematic elements of the strategic policy of the region. It is emphasized that the current strategic planning for the development of the region does not meet modern realities.

The author points out that the political consensus reached on implementation of the EAEU and the OBOR between the leaders of two countries significantly reduces geopolitical risks in Russian-Chinese relations and clarifies rules of regional competition in Central Asia. The paper analyses macroeconomic challenges for Chinese and Russian projects. In particular, it is emphasized that sea transport preference in the world trade and the coastal areas dominance in the world industry require from the RF and the PRC technological, administrative and legal solutions to provide effective realization of the initiatives. Particular attention is paid to the challenges for Russian transport and logistics system which significantly reduce the efficiency of industrial cooperation within the framework of the EAEU and limit Russian participation in the OBOR. In this article, short-term, medium-term and long-term scenarios of Russian-Chinese cooperation are addressed through the lens of the EAEU and the OBOR interaction including foreign trade, investment and cooperation in legal sphere.

The experience of modeling the activities of the United Nations is important for students to understand how the decision-making process in modern international system works and why in international relations everything is not going as well as we would like, but not as bad as it could be. The round table discussed the role of the UN in the modern world, the history of the organization and the contradictions, put in the basement by its founders when it emerged; the causes of the current UN crisis and the prospects for its elimination; the role of the UN in the past and present armed conflicts; in ensuring international security and protecting human rights; the United Nations activities in the field of the world economy on the example of the UN Global Compact on Social Responsibility, as well as other issues related to international relations at the present stage. It is noted that in the ordinary mind the expectations of the UN are extremely high. The UN has formed the image of a powerful and influential organization, the world government, although, in fact, it is a projection of international reality, and all its flaws are flaws in the system.
