Resume: 

As a general rule, international agreements are subject to voluntary execution. However, situations of the need for their enforcement are not excluded. Domestic law includes many ways to enforce international mediation agreements. International legal regimes provide for the exequatur in Russia of a foreign jurisdictional act adopted in a foreign country regarding an international mediation agreement. National legal regimes are based on the enforcement in Russia of internal jurisdictional acts (judicial acts, arbitral awards, notarial acts) adopted in relation to mediation agreements. Despite the variety of ways to enforce deathly agreements, they all require full-fledged jurisdictional proceedings. In this case, the development of a direct method of enforcement of international mediation agreements in Russia becomes relevant.

Key words: 
mediation, international mediation, mediation agreement, international mediation agreements, enforcement
