Внешнеторговая деятельность субъектов РФ: перспективы сохранения географической структуры поставок

Abstract

In 2022, the term “unfriendly countries / territories” was introduced as a “new” criterion for differentiating countries participating in foreign economic activity. Given the fact that about 30 % of national budget is formed by the foreign economic activity, the assessment of the prospects for maintaining the existing supply geography becomes expedient. The article divides the subjects into four groups, taking into account the “new” criterion which determines the level of contribution of “unfriendly” countries to the total volume of exports and imports of Russian regions. The first group included the regions whose volume of interaction with “unfriendly” countries is more than 50 % of the total volume of their imports and exports. The second one brings together the entities whose volume of interaction with “unfriendly” countries is more than 50 % of their total imports and lower than 50 % of their total exports. The third group consists of the entities whose import volume with “unfriendly” countries is lower than 50 % of their total import volume, and the export volume is higher than 50 % of their total export volume. The fourth group includes the regions whose volume of interaction with “unfriendly” countries is lower than 50 % of the total volume of their imports and exports. The highest indicators of maintaining the geographical structure of deliveries are expected primarily from the participants included in the fourth group.
