Abstract

Russian-Chinese relations in the XX–XXI century. are the subject of research. The study of Russian-Chinese interaction in the context of a set of activities in the field of sports is the central content direction and subject of the work. The authors set themselves the goal of exploring the mutual influence of the two states through soft power tools that determine the nature of bilateral relations at the “strategic partnership” level. One of the results of applying the historical method in the work was periodization. The role of this method is very important, since the authors studied the material over a fairly long time interval, which was 30 years, which made it possible to better understand the course of the bilateral process of international relations within the framework of the studied data volume, as well as to streamline the facts. The content analysis method made it possible to reveal the content of the documents adopted by the two countries. In the course of the analysis of a wide source base, the entire post-Soviet period of a joint policy in the field of sports was restored: events, facts, programs. Responsible officials and their positions in determining the strategic goals of sports cooperation were also established in this study. As a result of the work, the dynamics of various processes in the general sports policy was compared. The indicators were analyzed within the framework of the Olympic achievements of the two countries, government meetings and at various levels of adopted documents. The key areas of sports cooperation were systematized by the authors in the framework of the table on the history of the Russian-Chinese subcommittee on cooperation in the field of sports. This may be applicable for the strategic planning of the policy in the field of physical culture and sports of the two countries within the framework of the action plan to create conditions for physical culture and sports in Russia and China. The conclusion was the identified relationship between strengthening cooperation in the field of sports with increasing trade between the two countries
