The relevance of the topic of the article lies in the consideration of the relationship between security an socio-political problems that occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, limitations and opportunities that arose during this period. The COVID-19 epidemic quickly turned into a global threat and took on the characteristics of a pandemic. All countries, regardless of their different political status and economic
potential, directed their efforts to fight against a common enemy – the acute respiratory disease COVID-19.
The problems considered in the article are relevant for ensuring the safety of young people, their socio-political activity, opportunities for political and civil socialization, and therefore for the safety and development of the entire society in the future. Many scientists still pay attention to the pandemic and its consequences for society, in particular, young people. At present, it is not known whether humanity will face a

Studying ways to overcome numerous threats during the pandemic and trying to help and provide young people with everything necessary for their normal development are important tasks for
policies in the fields of education, medicine, economic development, national security and others.
