Abstract
The article presents the study results of Russian high-tech export to BRICS (Brazil, Russian Federation, India, China, South Africa) and Eurasian Economic Union countries in January 2019–2022. In order to determine the high-tech export specifics in accordance with the Russian exports center’s classification, data on the cost of goods with 2-, 4- and 6-digit codes under the Eurasian Economic Union Customs Code was matched to the goods groups by the processing degree. The key commodity positions of Russian high-tech export to these countries within the export goods groups are determined. The trends of changes in the export cost structure to the considered countries are indicated. The role of high-tech products in the total volume of Russian exports is revealed. The proposed approach can be used to analyze Russian import and export by structural and cost components.
