Popis:	We present the first data of GPS measurements on recent motions in the east of the Mongol–Okhotsk Fold Belt. Processing of GPS data yielded a vector field of the velocities of observation point displacements in the geodynamic network of the Upper Amur region. Comprehensive analysis of geological and geophysical data and the estimated velocities of site displacements in this network have shown kinematic heterogeneity of the present-day Mongol–Okhotsk Fold Belt and an intricate deformation pattern there. The tectonic regime within the belt permits considering it a buffer or transit zone, where tectonic stresses arise as a result of the different kinematics of the surrounding tectonic structures.
