БЕССАРАБИЯ В СИСТЕМЕ ТОРГОВЫХ ОТНОШЕНИЙ РОССИИ С АВСТРИЙСКОЙ ИМПЕРИЕЙ (1812-1867 гг.)

Abstract

From the point of view of trade relations, Bessarabia played an important role as a border region between Russia and Austria. This region served as an important transit point for goods passing between the two empires. Trade between Russia and the Austrian Empire was mainly focused on agricultural products such as grain, livestock and timber. The Austrian Empire was a major market for Bessarabian agricultural products, especially grain, which was in high demand due to Austria’s growing urban population. Bessarabia, with its fertile soil, became an important region for grain production, and a significant part of its agricultural products were exported to Austria.
