31 January 2020


Russia will continue to actively participate in strengthening the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin told at a meeting of the EAEU Intergovernmental Council in an expanded format today.


"Russia will continue to actively participate in strengthening the Union, creating all the necessary conditions for this. We generally view the dynamics of Eurasian integration in all major areas of activity positively: first of all, the work of the common market is improving, and supranational regulation is becoming more effective," the head of the Russian government said.


The meeting of the EAEU Intergovernmental Council in expanded format is held today in Almaty.


The main topics of discussion are mechanisms for removing barriers to the functioning of the EEU's internal market, creating an ecosystem of digital transport corridors, improving mechanisms for applying special protective, anti-dumping and countervailing measures, taking into account international rules and practices, etc.


The members of the Eurasian Economic Union are Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
