Abstract

This article is devoted to the analysis of the color revolutions, as a threat to national security and sovereignty of modern states. Besides, the role of the USА and Western countries in organizing and conducting the forced dismantling of the political regimes in the Middle East, North Africa and CIS countries is investigated. Color revolutions cause permanent political and socio-economic instability, threaten the territorial integrity and sovereignty of states. In these conditions close cooperation between Russia, China, Iran, Kazakhstan, Belarus and other countries is required with the aim of deterring destructive Western foreign policy strategy of reformatting the world order into the norms and standards of the Western civilization, part of which have become colored revolutions.
