In this research work, possible problems and prospects for using the most efficient route for the supply of Chinese goods to the Russian market were considered. The aim of the work is to determine the advantages of transporting goods from China to Russia using the unique Northern Sea Route, as well as the disadvantages of alternative routes. Given the real situation on the world stage, it makes sense for the Russian Federation to use and invest resources in the development of the Northern Sea Route, since this route can pass through the territory of the country, which will ensure the safe transportation of goods by the icebreaker fleet for more than 10 thousand kilometers, both in economic, as well as militarily. The work uses such research methods as: analysis and generalization of research information, as well as training based on the use of modern information and communication technologies.
