The article examines the main aspects of Soviet-Chinese cooperation in the field of sports after the normalization of bilateral relations in the late 1980s — early 1990s. Sport was one of the factors that contributed to overcoming the consequences of the thirty-year split between the USSR and the PRC at the state, regional and informal levels. During this period, the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China actively exchanged numerous sports delegations, adopting each other's successful experience in organizing and conducting competitions, as well as training athletes. In the USSR, Chinese national sports were popularized, primarily wushu and ping-pong. More traditional for the Soviet side was football, matches in which Soviet and Chinese athletes repeatedly played. Also, the article reveals some economic aspects of sports bilateral cooperation. A common thing for this period was the conclusion of various kinds of agreements and contracts at the interregional level, including those related to the sports component. The personal role of regional party functionaries, sports officials and athletes in the development of Soviet-Chinese relations is shown. There is a certain continuity between the perestroika period and the "golden age" of Soviet-Chinese cooperation in the 1950s. The experience of cooperation in sports gained at the end of perestroika had a beneficial effect on the development of Russian-Chinese relations in the 1990s. The study is carried out on the example of the Irkutsk region, which, due to objective reasons, has developed long-term and strong relations with a number of Chinese cities. The main source of the research was the Irkutsk regional periodicals.

This article examines the effectiveness of high performance sports as a tool for establishing and strengthening cooperation between the Republic of Moldova and other states, by creating a positive image and forming relations that official diplomacy is not able to carry out. In this regard, the experience of using sports diplomacy in the establishment of bilateral relations, as well as the solution of interstate, interethnic conflicts in the post-Soviet space is analyzed. In particular, the role of "football diplomacy" in resuming the negotiation process between Chisinau and Tiraspol, creating conditions conducive to resolving the long-term conflict is considered. In addition, football competitions between the embassies accredited in the Republic of Moldova, as well as the participation of Moldovan diplomatic missions in similar competitions abroad, play an important role in shaping the positive image of our country in the international arena. An essential factor of "soft power" is sports dances and the success of Moldovan athletes at international venues.
