The hypothesis is that the ongoing transformation of the global trading system directly affects the volume and structure of Sino-African trade. The analysis employs comparative and statistical methods, including ARMA and ARIMA models, to assess future prospects. The study draws on international statistical databases and analytical materials from expert organizations. The authors examine the dynamics and structure of Sino-African trade between 2000 and 2023 and find that the transformation of the global trading system is influencing the scale, dynamics, and structure of Sino-African trade, while persistent geographical, commodity-related, structural, and financial imbalances remain. The findings suggest that, amid increasing global instability and rising competition for African resources, it is crucial for China to support Africa’s socio-economic development as a means of expanding exports to the “golden” continent. The study holds both academic and practical relevance for China, African countries, and Russia, offering insights into the mechanisms, patterns, and constraints of foreign trade cooperation with Africa in the evolving global trade landscape.</p></abstract><abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Поскольку торгово-экономические отношения Китая и государств Африки в последние десятилетия приобрели системообразующий характер для обеих сторон и для мирового хозяйства и переживают процесс качественной трансформации, цель исследования заключается в выявлении особенностей и тенденций внешнеторговых отношений между КНР и странами Африканского континента и прогнозировании перспективной направленности и характера этих отношений. Гипотеза исследования заключается в том, что трансформация мировой торговли непосредственно преобразует объемы и структуру китайско-африканской торговли. В статье применяются компаративный, статистический анализ и модели ARMA и ARIMA для оценки перспектив китайско-африканской торговли. Использовались аналитические материалы и базы статистических данных международных организаций, экспертных центров и собственных исследований. Авторами проанализирована динамика и структура китайско-африканской торговли товарами в 2000–2023 гг. Установлено, что трансформация мировой торговли изменяет объемы, динамику, структуру китайско-африканской торговли при сохранении ее дисбалансов (географического, товарного, структурного, финансового). Разработаны прогнозные сценарии (инерционный, оптимистичный и пессимистичный) развития внешней торговли Китая и стран Африки на период до 2030 г., подтверждающие существенный торговый дисбаланс. Для уменьшения торгового дисбаланса нами разработаны рекомендации, а именно: увеличение импорта африканских товаров, особенно несырьевой продукции, внедрение мер по упрощению логистики, снижению торговых барьеров и увеличению инвестиций в перерабатывающие отрасли Африки. Сделан вывод, что в сложившихся условиях роста глобальной нестабильности и усилившейся конкуренции за африканские ресурсы Китаю важно содействовать социально-экономическому прогрессу Африки для роста экспорта на «золотой» континент. Исследование представляет научный и практический интерес как для КНР и стран Африки, являющихся важнейшими участниками трансформации мировой торговой системы, так и для РФ, и позволяет установить основные закономерности внешнеторгового сотрудничества со странами Африки, его механизмы и ограничения.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd> China</kwd><kwd>Africa</kwd><kwd>international  trade</kwd><kwd>global  instability</kwd><kwd>transformation  of  international  trade</kwd><kwd>Sino-African  trade cooperation</kwd><kwd>foreign trade policy</kwd><kwd>forecasting</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Китай</kwd><kwd>Африка</kwd><kwd>международная торговля (мт)</kwd><kwd>глобальная нестабильность</kwd><kwd>трансформация международной торговли</kwd><kwd>китайско-африканское торговое сотрудничество</kwd><kwd>внешнеторговая политика</kwd><kwd>прогнозирование</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="ref1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Андреева, Е.
