Abstract

The collapse of the USSR affected negatively in many respects the relations formed in the years in the field of science and education between individual countries - the former republics of the USSR and teams of scientists. The paper contains the key types of scientific competitions held in the Russian Federation for joint research with teams of scientists from the CIS countries, as well as a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of submitted applications for joint projects and the number of competitions won in the context of individual CIS countries. The authors made recommendations on expanding further cooperation in the field of R&D between researchers from the CIS countries and Russian scientists.
