The article uses a benchmarking approach of Russian and US international legal doctrines and diplomatic practice.RESEARCH RESULTS. As a conclusion of research of the posed questions of consolidation of legal principles and norms in the context of contemporary foreign policy of Russia and transatlantic Western countries it is suggested that the modern Western political doctrines deviate from the International legal basis, defined by science and practice of international law, and from it’s classic doctrines formed in the XX century.DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. It seems that the current crisis in the modern system of international relations can be overcome on the basis of the proposals considered by F.F.
