While importing .csv with the content:
product_name;images
my_product_name;"/images/image.jpg"

/images/image.jpg imports as a Name of the image (not as the path to image).

Sample from hika shop documentation:
product_name,images
My product,"image_front.jpg"

- we can see, that images - just images (not name, not alt - it must be just the path to image)

If you import /images/image.jpg in the images column, you will get an image with the path /images/image.jpg and with the name /images/image as the system doesn't handle subfolders for the name of the image.
If you do like the documentation suggests, you will have an image with the path image_front.jpg and with the name image front.

So what is the problem for you ?

No - at present time I'm not about image name (of course, It's impossible to define image name in Russian in such way).
- I can't see the image in product editing page (instead of my image, I see the standard image with the path: ../media/com_hikashop/images/thumbnail_100x100/barcode.png).

Sample of my .csv:
product_code;product_name;images
my_product_1;my_product_1_name;test.jpg

- in what folder I need to put my image test.jpg ?

P.S. When I've uploaded the image through the product editing, I saw the path like this: ../media/com_hikashop/upload/thumbnail_100x100/test_image.jpg
but I can't find the place in the base, where the path is defining?

You have to upload your images in media/com_hikashop/upload
Your csv looks fine, try to upload your images and it should work.
