In the foreign policy and economy of the Russian Federation, the coordinate system is being turned to the East. This logic fits into the framework of the Eurasian ideology. It also correlates with China's desire to create a global center of confrontation with the United States. This problem is being actualized through a special military operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine and a "hybrid war" with the countries of the collective West. The formation of new blocs, the "Eastern Entente" leads to a change in the geopolitics of Eurasia and the world as a whole. Within the framework of the research, the author uses the following methods: historical, geopolitical and civilizational approaches, concrete historical, observation and generalization, systemic socio-political and ethnic analysis, synthesis. In the conclusions, the author comes to the opinion about the need to reformat existing supranational integration projects in the post-Soviet space, transform the architecture of relations in the political, economic and military spheres with the countries of East and Southeast Asia, and apply the Eurasian ideology as a state-forming one.

The problem of the spread of extremist organizations' activities in the South of Russia is intensified due to the increasing role of international actors and the influence of neighboring States. Extremist groups are included in the sphere of interests of countries with high level of institutional instability that have unresolved territorial administrative problems and also major terrorist organizations such as the 'Islamic State' (ISIL) prohibited on the territory of the Russian Federation. The author applies an institutional method to determine the role of international influence on the development of extremist organizations in the South of Russia. Despite the decline in its activity, the ISIL continues to be among the priority threats to international security. The Russian Federation has successfully conducted anti-terrorist operation in Syria, while the ISIL operates in Iraq and other regions of the world. Its area of interest includes Russia, since the ISIL units exist on the territory of the Caucasus region and the Crimean Peninsula. At the same time, the territory of the Rostov region and the Republic of Crimea are subjected to the influence of the Ukrainian geo-strategic interests. The Ukrainian authorities act with territorial claims to the Russian Federation on a number of border regions as well as organize sabotage operations and support marginal movements. The so-called 'Circassian question' continues to be significant for the South of Russia. In the context of the present research, the author poses the problem of considering the interaction of neighboring countries and extremist organizations in the Russian border regions. The institutional research approaches allow determining the main "point of tension" in the southern border area, and to identify the main actors influencing the extremist organization. The results of the work give conclusions about the main directions of foreign States' influence on the regions of the South of Russia and counteraction to them by the security authorities.
