Abstract

The article deals with the role of international law in the formation of cyberspace. The authors analyze the existing problems in the field of international law and governance in cyberspace, reveal the problems of regulation of cyberspace and digital sovereignty, which is based on the idea of control and management of access to information, communications, networks and infrastructure in the digital sphere by public authorities, based on the experience of Europe and Asia in the European and Asian space; the Chinese-Russian cyber Alliance on Digital sovereignty is analyzed. The unfolding situation in the field of digital sovereignty raises questions of freedom in cyberspace, as well as undermines the potential of modern international law in the field of cybersecurity, which makes it necessary to modify the existing legal regime.
