Foreignpolicy reflects the state strategy and national interests, including cooperation in the field of culture, economyand trade. Today we can affirm the interdependence of foreign policy and information space. TheXXI century is called the explosive epoch of information. Information as the basic form of the exchangeof ideas of humanity is simultaneously a symbol of the human mind. We recognize that information today,perhaps, prevails in most spheres of human, social and state life. As never before in the past, today,too much attention is paid to information. A special role is given to using the Internet, which created anew world and plunged everyone into the virtual space of an endless stream of information. MO theoriesaffirm that the information space of a geopolitical ally or competitor is a specific object and managementtool for the state information policy of any country. A significant role in the formation of public consciousnessis assigned to the mass media, primarily by the fact that they are located during the new SilkRoad. Magazines, newspapers, radio, television, Internet sites, etc., modernizing their activities, refer tothe latest communication tools and important agents of influence. On the one hand, in the modern worldmedia have long played, the role of the «fourth force», on the other, has become a functional tool in theinternational political process.
