Abstract

The article notes that globalization brings not only the economies of different countries, but also creates certain prerequisites for the formation of global ethics is already indicated by a consensus on a number of key humanitarian values, values which represent a synthesis of East and West. Russia is certainly a European country, which, however, has a considerable territory in Asia, which is a formal obstacle to its eventual entry into the EU. In this regard, it’s necessary to find a form of “privileged partnership” with it, which would provide “a pan-European unity”. Despite the fact that now in Russian society and in the West, dominated by very different sentiments, the confrontation between Russia and Europe end sooner or later. For both sides, cooperation is no alternative.
