The authors study the attitude of Russians to NATO countries (USA, UK, Germany, France) and also to China and India. A trend sociological study was conducted with an interval in time (in 2014 and in 2017) on similar samples within a single exponential population. It is revealed that the image of the United States in the social and political discourse of Russia is generally negative. The attitude of student youth to other countries is determined by their satisfaction with their lives, level of education, and gender characteristics. In addition, it was found that a significant part of student youth is negatively related to the United States, since in the materials of permanent columnists, in news articles, reports, newspaper and magazine articles about the United States, a negative image is created. At the same time, girls relate better than boys to NATO countries, but they treat China worse than boys. The authors propose the tools of “soft power”, which the Russian Federation should use to raise its status on the world stage. In addition, authors are proposing the measures aimed at easing tensions between the Russian Federation and the NATO countries, as well as aimed at even greater rapprochement with such countries as China and India.

Forms and models of social adaptation and integration of foreign students are analyzed. Within the sociological study, it was established that for foreign students, social integration takes place in three scenarios. So, for a large part of foreign students from the CIS countries, social integration occurs in the form of assimilation. For a significant part of foreign students from the Baltic countries, social integration takes place in the form of acculturation. For a small part of foreign students, social integration occurs in the form of absorption. In addition, it was found that foreign female students, regardless of their ethnic origin, are less likely to join an international union than male. It was also found that the interethnic adaptation of ethnically mixed student families in Yaroslavl obtains the character of ethnic assimilation. According to the results of the study, it is generally concluded that, despite the different scenarios for the social integration of foreign students, an absolute majority of them can be characterized by integration, which is described by an integrative model - multiculturalism. In other words, foreign students actively interact with the local population, while retaining their traditions and custom
