Abstract
The article shows the importance of the Eastern Landfill modernization project for the development of Russian regions and the country's economy. The chronology of the implementation of the Eastern Landfill modernization project and its prospects are given, taking into account existing plans for the development of freight capacity, as well as the forecast of demand for domestic, export-import and transit cargo transportation. The influence of the curtailment of Russia's cooperation with Europe and the turn to the East on the change in the dynamics and structure of Russian rail freight transportation is analyzed. It is shown that the project of modernization of the Eastern Polygon in the context of the observed fragmentation of the global economy will enhance Russia's role in the promising Asia-Pacific region and strengthen long-term cooperation with its strategic partner, China.
