Over the past year, the issue of ensuring the transport connectivity of the Kaliningrad region has grown from an economic plane into a matter of geostrategic importance that determines all aspects of the functioning of the region. The sanctions of the EU countries against Russia and Belarus, and the retaliatory measures taken by our state, have created a new geopolitical and geo-economic situation in which the previous mechanisms for ensuring the transport connectivity of the region from the main territories of the country have ceased to work. As a result, federal and regional authorities are faced with the need to develop and adopt measures to ensure the transport connectivity of the region in time pressure. The article analyzes how the restrictive measures imposed by the EU against Russia and Belarus affected the possibilities of ensuring transport connectivity of the exclave region with the core of the country's territories and what response steps were taken to overcome the emerging crisis situations. The author comes to the conclusion that the federal and regional authorities as a whole managed to find effective measures to ensure the functioning of the Kaliningrad region without breaking the freight and passenger communication channels with the main territory of the country.
