The aim of Foreign Affairs is to provide a platform for the publication of advanced scientific research related to current issues in international relations, international economic processes, and foreign policy. We strive to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue among scholars, policymakers, and government officials, ensuring that research in these areas influences political practice and contributes to the development of scientifically sound decisions.

• international economics and global trade: this includes the study of economic interactions between countries, analysing the impact of global economic processes;
• diplomacy and foreign policy: providing a platform for scientific works on diplomacy, foreign policy, and intergovernmental interactions;
