PROBLEMS OF ILLICIT CIRCULATION OF STRATEGIC GOODS AND RESOURCES AS A FACTOR OF DESTABILIZATION OF THE SYSTEM OF NATIONAL ECONOMIC SOVEREIGNTY

Abstract

The article examines the risks of illegal movement of strategically important goods and resources across the customs border of the Russian Federation and the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union. The economic, legal, and organizational factors contributing to the formation of shadow schemes for the export and import of strategic goods are analyzed, including raw materials, dual-use products, rare earth metals, energy resources, and other categories critical to national security. Special attention is paid to the role of customs authorities in counteracting illegal trafficking of strategic goods and to the functioning of the risk management system in customs control. The main methods and channels of illegal movement of strategic resources are considered, modern threats to economic security are analyzed, and directions for improving customs administration mechanisms are identified. The necessity of a comprehensive approach to minimizing the risks of illegal movement of strategically important goods, including the development of digital technologies, interagency cooperation, and improvement of the regulatory framework, is substantiated.
