Some forms of language exploitation (not necessarily meant in a negative way) can be found in an effort to express national interests and preferences by means of using/banning foreign words (which can either boost or prevent international relations). Nouns and proper names are the most commonly adopted foreign words. This paper focuses on the usage of foreign proper names in Russian texts during different periods of time (19th–21st centuries) and tries to answer the question as to why during some periods, proper names preserved the original Latin script in texts written in Russian, whereas in other times, Cyrillic transcription was preferred.
