Abstract
The purpose of the study is to identify the main prospects for transport and logistics cooperation between Russia and China. The relevance of the article is to reflect the current state of relations between the two countries in the field of transport cooperation and the potential for their further development. Individual projects in the field of transport are highlighted, in particular, the One Belt – One Road initiative is noted, and the key effects of the implementation of such projects are reflected. The methodology used was the analysis of open news and statistical sources posted on the Internet. The positions of experts based on the analysis of literature on the topic are presented. As a result of the study, the prerequisites for strengthening and deepening relations between the two countries were noted, and a conclusion was made about the prospects for further transport and logistics integration, including through the potential of the Siberian regions. Improving logistics processes in the field of transport can significantly strengthen trade relations between Russia and China in both the short and long term. This will create new prospects for increasing trade turnover, which has already reached record levels in 2024. Optimization of existing logistics routes and the construction of new ones in the future will allow increasing the indicators of mutual trade between the two partner countries.
