Abstract
The article presents a study of the current state and an assessment of prospects for crossborder cooperation based on the results of the statistical data analysis and a survey of the West Kazakhstan region residents. The source of information was social networks, which determined a significant proportion of young people among the respondents. The authors have identified a trend of weakening mutual ties between the population. The prospects relate to the development of humanitarian ties (cultural, sports), as well as overcoming existing problems, such as reducing the time of crossing the border, improving the border infrastructure, solving the issue of international payments.
