This study aims to investigate the public perception of the structural changes in British foreign policy at the beginning of the XX century. The authors focus on assessments of the British political circles, primarily the liberal-imperialists – the right wing of the Liberal Party. The article analyses the content and prospects of the Anglo-Japanese agreement. Particular emphasis is placed on the study of publications containing assessments of the foreign policy of the United Kingdom in the central as well as provincial print media. It should be stressed that the British political circles discorded with on the country's foreign policy course - the ruling Conservative party approved the conclusion of the treaty, but the opposition liberal party unequivocally assessed the agreement of 1902. The right-wing liberals, in contrast to the center and the left wing of the Liberal Party, were less skeptical about this Anglo-Japanese alliance. Finally, the authors draw conclusions that the press as a whole was ambivalent about the agreement of 1902.
