The article examines the historical aspects of the development of the pharmaceutical indus-try in Russia, the economic features of the development and production of pharmaceutical substances and medicines, as well as the problems faced by the industry with the beginning of sanctions restrictions. The author evaluates the state import substitution programs, the purpose of which is to reduce dependence on the import of medicines and pharmaceutical substances to Russia. The dynamics of the pharmaceutical market growth, as well as the dynamics of the decrease in the import of medicines from foreign countries are analyzed. Based on the analysis, conclusions were drawn about the failure to achieve the targets stated in state programs and the continued dependence on imported medicines. However, we can note a positive trend of increasing funding for research in the pharmaceutical industry, and the creation of own samples of medicines is also proceeding at an accelerated pace.
In connection with the sanctions conditions, Russia is turning to the East, which has a positive effect on Russian-Chinese trade and economic cooperation. Russia's focus on import substitution must be gradually reduced and its industries developed, which is what our country's policy is aimed at. Under the current conditions, it is difficult to immediately solve this problem, which is why Russia is focused on import substitution from China.
Sanctions designed to break Russia’s foreign trade relations and cut off Western financial flows were supposed to cause “financial starvation” of economic entities, but these plans were violated by the actions of our government. However, other objective factors played an important role in this, such as: firstly, the deep integration of the state into the economy, secondly, the high share of the shadow economy, and the third factor – the real sector of the economy in recent years has existed under the conditions of a “financial hunger." These factors contributed to the Russian economy's resistance to adverse impacts, and enabled it to develop in new conditions.

In the context of the modern confrontation between the Russian Federation and unfriendly foreign countries, an analysis of the historical experience of our country in the field of independent state financial policy is becoming especially relevant. It is necessary to clearly identify those sides of domestic and foreign financial policy that weakened or, conversely, strengthened the country's financial sovereignty. The experience of the USSR in the first decades of its formation is especially informative in this area, since it was during this period of time that our country expe-rienced the entire range of instruments of financial war, which some powers use against Russia today.
