THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE LOCAL PRESS TO THE FORMATION OF A POSITIVE IMAGE OF THE USSR IN THE INTERNATIONAL ARENA IN THE EARLY 30S OF THE XX CENTURY
( Pp. 65-71)

The study of the domestic experience of the policy of forming a positive image of the state in the international arena is very important within the framework of the goals and objectives of the political course of modern Russia. The article is devoted to the study of the role of the local press as an important means of forming a positive image of the USSR in the international arena during the formation of hotbeds of a new world war. The author traces the coverage of various important foreign policy events in local newspapers. The subject of the research is the materials of publications on the work of the Geneva conference on disarmament and the conclusion of bilateral treaties with foreign countries in the newspapers Volzhskaya Kommuna, Krasny Sever, Soviet Siberia for 1932-1934. Based on the results of the examination, the author comes to the conclusion that local periodicals actively contributed to the formation of a firm conviction among Soviet citizens about the foreign policy of the USSR aimed at preventing new wars and preserving peace. The policy of foreign states aimed at delaying the adoption of decisions on disarmament issues was sharply criticized. By all possible means, both verbal and visual, the local press tried to draw attention to the two-faced nature of Western countries on the issues of maintaining peace and preventing war.
