Russia-China trade and economic relations: current state and future prospects
The Institute for Statistical Studies and Economics of Knowledge (ISSEK) at HSE University delved into the dynamics of trade between Russia and China using Trademap data to provide a detailed analysis at the level of specific goods. The study evaluated trade intensity, interdependence, complementarity indices, as well as comparative strengths and weaknesses to provide a comprehensive view of bilateral economic relations.
Experts concluded that Russia-China trade has reached a new qualitative level in recent years, with both export and import volumes growing significantly. Russia's export strengths lie mainly in first-processed goods, while China imports primarily raw materials and products that require minimal processing—aligning closely with Russia's export profile.
Amid rising global instability, ongoing sanctions against Russia, and Moscow's Pivot to the East, bilateral ties between Russia and China are expected to deepen further—both directly and through multilateral platforms like #BRICS.

BRICS Legal Studies School 2025 held in Brazil
🌍 From August 4 to 9, 2025, the second annual BRICS Legal Studies School was held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Organised by the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG)—a partner of HSE Faculty of Law and member of the BRICS Law Schools Consortium initiated by HSE University—the event brought together approximately 30 students from Brazil, Russia, China, and other nations. Participants attended lectures on the legal systems of BRICS founding countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa—and engaged in panel discussions addressing global challenges and international cooperation. Lectures and discussions were led by scholars from the BRICS partner universities.
The school’s academic programme offered an in-depth exploration of #BRICS legal systems through the lens of comparative law, alongside analysis of member states’ positions on artificial intelligence regulation, international trade law, and legal response to climate change.
Brazil’s BRICS Chairship in 2025 and its role as host of the 30th UN Climate Change Conference (COP 30) lent particular significance to this year’s school. The recent adoption of an AI governance declaration at the XVII BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, along with ongoing climate discussions within the group, further enriched the relevance of the school’s panel sessions.
❕ The event also served as a platform for inter-university dialogue and exploring future collaborative initiatives within the BRICS Law Schools Consortium.

"Until now, our Western colleagues have operated with a sense of impunity and superiority over the Global Majority. This is why BRICS plays an invaluable role. Despite all the rhetoric from the West and their attempts to discredit the group, BRICS has demonstrated both its relevance and its capacity to propose new initiatives—not only in economic and financial spheres, but across all three pillars of #BRICS cooperation."
