ON THE CONTENT AND OBJECTIVES OF LAW INTERPRETATION MEANS OF ENSURING NATIONAL SECURITY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Introduction. Despite the fact that the problem of the content and potential of legal means of ensuring national security of the Russian Federation in the context of modern geopolitical challenges and threats attracts the attention of a significant number of specialists, there is every reason to assert that it is the legal interpretation means of ensuring national security of the state that are the least studied. This seems to be a significant gap in the legal doctrine, since it is the interpretation of the law that allow not only to increase the effectiveness of the lawimplementation process, but also to protect the key national interests of the Russian Federation.
Materials and methods. When writing the article, both general scientific and specific scientific methods were used, among which one can single out dialectical, structural-functional, systemic, formallegal, the method of legal modeling, etc. The author also used hermeneutic and heuristic methodological approaches in substantiating the potential of legal interpretation means of ensuring the national security of the Russian Federation.
The results of the study. The paper substantiates the author's concept of legal interpretation means of ensuring national security of the Russian Federation, which is proposed to be understood as activities aimed at clarifying and explaining the meaning of legal regulations, as well as acts of official and unofficial interpretation of law, aimed at protecting, defending and ensuring the guaranteed implementation of national interests. The goals and characteristics of these legal means are formulated, as well as their key tasks, some of which the author describes as the disclosure of the content and meaning of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values, an explanation of the essence, significance and varieties of national interests of Russia, the formation of the Russian legal doctrine taking into account the specifics of the civilizational features of the state, etc.
Discussion and conclusion. The article argues that, along with the official interpretation of law, unofficial interpretation is also a very significant, but obviously underestimated legal interpretation means of ensuring national security of the state, the potential of which is practically not used. In the designated context, we are talking not so much about the doctrinal interpretation of law, but about its ordinary interpretation, which can be given by widely known individuals who enjoy well-deserved respect and trust in society (the so-called influencers).
