Abstract

The article deals with various aspects of Russia’s expansion to the East in the late XIX — early XX centuries, including the economic and political components of this process. The reasons for the increased clash of interests between Russia and the United States in the Far East, up to the first systemic crisis in bilateral relations under the influence of Russian expansion in Northern China and the Russian-Japanese war are shown. The main directions in the American public opinion of that time in connection with the Eastern policy of Russia are analyzed. It is concluded that the “Far Eastern factor” contributed to the negativity of the image of Russia in the views of the Americans.
