Abstract: In the modern world the mass media are perceived as independent sociocultural phenomenon, which, along with other mechanisms of the media depends on the process of formation and preservation of identity. This thesis revealed in the present work on the example of Russian media, which began to spread in Germany after the Second world war. They have evolved over more than half a century and have now become one of the social phenomena that play an important role in the design of the information space of the European States. It is shown that at the present stage of Russian-speaking mass media play a dual role. On the one hand, they contribute to the integration of Russian-speaking population in the host German society, and on the other, are the separation of the ethnic groups, the preservation of its cultural and political identity is inextricably linked with Soviet culture.

Key words: cultural-political identity, Russian-speaking ethnic group, foreign language
