Scientific and practical research is aimed at finding models: 1) conflict prevention; 2) being in a state of conflict; 3) exit or resolution of the conflict situation The main challenge in the communications of International economic relations (IER) subjects is the search for a universal mechanism of coordination and regulation of various (sometimes diametrically opposed) economic interests. The search at the level of global institutions will require long-term work in the conditions of the world's diversity in terms of values, culture, consciousness, interests, etc. Therefore, the first priority for each national economic system is to take full responsibility for its effectiveness. The saying of the British Lord G. is well known to diplomats. J.T. Palmerston, who declared in Parliament that England has neither eternal allies nor eternal enemies. "Only our interests are immutable and eternal - and it is our duty to adhere to them". We believe that this should also be true for Ukraine. We insist on the need to focus on one's own responsibility for the well-being and reputation of the State. The conflict, as evidenced by historical experience, intensifies with the growth of the objective process of scaling the presence of the State's national business in the continental markets of the World Economic System. Awareness of the need to eliminate the negative perception of conflicts will contribute to revealing the potential of further development of subjects in the plane of the international trade system. A constructive solution is an analysis of the pain points of the Company and the State highlighted by the counterparty in order to make a decision regarding responsibility for the further course of action: 1) agree, stop, collapse; 2) unite - share risks; 3) focus on own super-powers and geographical diversification in other areas; 4) implementation in a new format of the product, the newest areas, different from the previous direction of trade and production activity - from the bank of ideas. Nowadays situation demonstrate, that Crises are events that cannot be predicted. Nothing is more permanent than change. So, crises should make us stronger! Adaptability is just ability to remain unchanged. Summarizing the causes of the conflict, we claim that it is a desire to: 1) increase profit; 2) increasing the share (presence) in the market 3) Strengthening the "Power of the voice in the IER" – increasing the power in Geoeconomics, Geopolitics; 4) clash of different goals, truths (viewpoints) and values. The formation of the subject's own system of power (the State) in the system of international economic relations will require the implementation of the following algorithm of actions. 1. Calculation of NES – the level of security of the national economic system, as a result of 30% loading of available production capacities; 2. Based on the identification of one's own advantages – uniqueness – calculation of natural advantages and the probability of developing acquired advantages – clarification of NEI in IER; 3. Formation on the basis of 1 and 2 of the System of State Power in IER. We offer the author's model « stay in the conflict process». Not traditionally, we see this model as a component of two blocks of actions. I. Focusing attention and resources on strengthening one's own position and eliminating identified vulnerable positions of the parties. For the formation of the "Strength System", which would become a guarantor of ensuring the appropriate level of National Economic Security. It is a prerequisite for the opening of the country's opportunities, before the opening of the potential of the National Economic Interests. II. The very process of business dialogue has a diplomatic body, the task of which is to stretch the business dialogue in time with the intention of bringing it to a neutral plane by means of effective communication technologies. Economic history shows that as soon as the actions of the State focus on identifying, adopting and directing actions to strengthen its own value – uniqueness (without comparisons and comparisons with other entities of the IER) – all players of the World Economy /companies and states/ show a desire to interact with it! Summarizing the processed materials of the practice of conflicts in the World Economic System, we formulate their main basis, veiled, to a certain extent not obvious, but true – the desire to acquire the "Power of Voice" through increasing the market share in international trade of key goods, services, resources and ideas, and, therefore, – the strength of Geoeconomic and Geopolitical positions and stability in the face of global challenges.
