The current situation characterises the increase in migration flows around the world. The Russian Federation belongs to the three countries the most attractive to migrants. In the structure of migration to our country, the essential place takes labour migration. An overwhelming part of migrants comes from neighbouring countries — the former Soviet republics that support close economic and political connections with Russia. There is a consensus between scientists that migration, indeed, is necessary for our country. It allows for solving critical economic and demographic problems. At the same time, it is required to pay attention to those risks it brings. Among the issues revealed in the sphere of management of the migration relations, we should stipulate the essential improvement of a regulatory framework of the state migration policy and support for successful social and cultural adaptation and integration of migrants into the native community. In 2012, after the adoption of strategic documents, begins the new stage in the history of the state migration policy in our country. Its characteristic feature is the search of balance between the interests of economic development of the country and safety of the state and society. It is supplemented by the widespread introduction of innovative techniques and approaches to management of the migration relations. Adoption in 2018 of the new edition of the “Conception of the state migration policy of the Russian Federation until 2025” is targeted on to the solution of the relevant tasks arising in this sphere. “Conception” stresses the necessity of accounting of interests of representatives of the native community and migrants, close interaction of representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Federal Agency for the Affairs of Nationalities of the Russian Federation and institutes of civil society in establishing partner relationship between public authorities and national public organizations.
