This is especially true in the context of tourism active interaction of youth, which sets the stage for the development of multidirectional trends in the international stage.

The authors identified the main problematic aspects and factors that characterize a promising role and place of youth tourism as a desired tool of soft power and channels of influence of Russia in the international space.
