Explored the importance of discourse and discourse systems in international political science, and pointed out that discourse systems are tools for conveying strategic considerations and systematic exposition in national policy texts. As a strategic planning document reflecting Russia's international perspective, the discourse system of the "Concept of Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation" is crucial for understanding Russia's foreign policy. There are shortcomings in comparing and analyzing the evolution process of the "Foreign Policy Concept" in domestic research. Therefore, this study aims to systematically organize and study the six editions of the "Foreign Policy Concept" text through discourse analysis and qualitative and quantitative research, revealing the construction logic of its discourse system and providing reference for China's policy towards Russia.

1、 The phased significance of each version of the Foreign Policy Concept

A detailed analysis was conducted on the evolution of Russia's foreign policy after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and six versions of the "Foreign Policy Concept" were presented to demonstrate Russia's international positioning and policy orientation at different historical stages. The 1993 edition marked Russia's repositioning in the international system, emphasizing the establishment of partnerships with Western countries and the pursuit of great power status. The 2000 and 2008 editions reflected Russia's active integration into the international system, proposing the concept of a multipolar international order while recognizing new threats and challenges. The 2013 edition showed Russia's gradual rejection of the existing international order, especially after the Ukraine crisis and Crimea incident, which led to a deterioration in Russia's relations with the West. The 2016 edition emphasized the role of increasing military force in international relations, and Russia began to adjust its foreign policy, no longer pursuing integration into Western led globalization. The 2023 edition further deepens Russia's response to changes in the international situation, emphasizing the maintenance of global power balance and a multipolar international system, and the development of contacts with non Western countries. Overall, Russia's foreign policy discourse system has shifted from crisis response to crisis prevention and preemptive strike, reflecting the phased characteristics and changing trajectory of its foreign policy.

2、 The main discourse units and narrative evolution of Russia's "Foreign Policy Concept"

In depth analysis of the main discourse units and their narrative evolution over time in Russia's "Foreign Policy Concept". Discourse units are the fundamental elements that make up the discourse system of foreign policy, and they are interconnected and have an impact on other units. These discourse units include "identity," "international order," "international security," "international economic cooperation," and "civilization.

3、 The core construction logic of the discourse system in Russia's "Foreign Policy Concept"

Deeply analyzed the core construction logic of the discourse system in Russia's "Foreign Policy Concept". Through the framing effect of language, Russia's foreign policy discourse system is constructed through three core logics: domestic and international connectivity, pursuit of strategic equality and balance, and synchronization of history and reality. These logics not only guide the intensity of expression within the discourse system, but also reflect the intentions and demands of decision-makers.

4、 Further reflection and inspiration

Discourse analysis plays a crucial role in building identity in Russia's foreign policy. During the Yeltsin era, the discourse system of Russia's foreign policy was not yet mature, while during the Putin era, it showed obvious continuity and solidification. The events of NATO and EU's eastward expansion, the Ukrainian crisis, as well as internal factors such as national interests, security concepts, and status goals, have jointly promoted the evolution of Russia's foreign policy discourse system. Russia pursues strategic equality with the West and reshapes its international prestige, but its discourse system has problems such as unclear concepts and ideological contradictions. Russia needs to seek a balance between domestic and foreign policies and avoid isolation in safeguarding national interests and security.
