      The author formulates the CR Yamabe problem as the Yamabe problem for the Fefferman metric, which is reduced to finding a positive function as the solution of a nonlinear subelliptic problem of variational origin. The boundary condition of this problem turned out to be the problem of minimality of boundary in the canonical circle bundle. This condition projected on manifold is interpreted as CR Yamabe problem. In the paper, only geometric aspects are discussed.
