For this purpose, the materials of the population sociological survey were used, more than 600 residents of the Republic took part in the survey, their distribution by sex, age and place of residence was taken into account. The study was carried out by the Chuvash State Institute of Humanities. In a number of cases, data obtained during 2018 and 2019 studies were used. Negative elements of inter-ethnic relationships, manifested in negative statements about people of other nationalities, real manifestations of such negative relationships are examined. It is shown that such inconveniences are not common, and they were noted by a small number of respondents.
