The author analyzes the constitutional compatibility of a number of countries in the Asia-Pacific region, namely: the Democratic people’s Republic of Korea, the people’s Republic of China, the Republic of Korea (South Korea), Japan, and Russia. It is noted that the growth of economic integration between the economies of East Asia does not lead to the elimination of deep strategic mistrust. Russia’s geographical, geopolitical and growing economic presence in the Asia-Pacific region is becoming a reality today. The study is based on the recognition of the identity of the development of each APR state, the legal consequence of which is the registration of statehood as a result of the realization of the right of people to self-determination.The analysis of the norms that have been enshrined at the international level and in the main national acts – Constitutions-is carried out. The preamble to the Asia-Pacific Declaration is the starting point and has affirmed that all peoples have the fundamental and universally recognized right to self-determination, by virtue of which they freely determine their political status and pursue economic, social and cultural development. It is on the basis of that right that peoples have the right to permanent sovereignty over their natural wealth and resources. Constitutional models and formulas which imperatively fix realization of the right to self-determination by the people of the countries entering the Asia-Pacific region are investigated. The conclusion about the constitutional readiness for dialogue on the platform of the Asia-Pacific region is formulated, which should be included in the Russian integration strategy in the Asia-Pacific region.
