RIC (RUSSIA - INDIA - CHINA) IN THE SYSTEM OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: ACHIEVEMENTS AND CHALLENGES

Abstract

The article deals with the concept of political interaction between three countries - Russia, India and China, which make up the strategic triangle of the region. In this work, the author sets out to identify existing problems and contradictions between the countries participating in the RIC, as well as to determine possible ways of resolving them. Using modern approaches to the study of international relations and security (systemic, historical, political science, etc.), the author analyzes the dynamics of the relations between these countries in the framework of the formation of a new international security system. On the basis of current trends in international relations, as well as expert assessments, the author outlines key directions of political cooperation between Russia, India and China within the framework of triangular cooperation and at the level of bilateral relations. The findings of the study can be used to predict the directions of the development of relations between these countries.
