The article considers a problematic situation and disproportion in the spatial development of Russia. It expresses the authors’ position on the cur rently established Russian Federation Spatial Development Strategy and outlines conceptual provisions that should be reflected there. We examine the strategic priorities for the spatial development of Russia and Siberia, as well as trends, challenges, and threats that can change the development vectors in macro-regions. Special attention is paid to the positioning of Siberia in the eastern vector of Russia’s development and, in particular, to the problems of development and interaction among the regions in Siberia, the Russion Far East, and the Northeast China. We review some issues related to aligning the Eurasian Economic Union with the Silk Road Economic Belt and carrying out the One Belt One Road Initiative.
