🇷🇺🤝 On January 1, 2023, Russia assumed the chairmanship of the Eurasian Economic Union (#EAEU), an organisation that united Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and our country in 2015.
Russia’s chairmanship has the following priorities:
• Developing the technological potential of the member states;
• Boosting interaction in digital transformation ;
• Developing the agricultural sector;
• Creating common energy markets ;
• Harmonising the financial markets;
• Equalising the competitive environment for the union’s enterprises.
In the past eight years, the EAEU member states have done a lot to eliminate the barriers to the movement of goods, services, capital and labour between the countries of the union. In most sectors, common markets have already been created and are operating successfully. In 2022, three of the 11 listed barriers were removed, and another four more will be lifted in the near future.
📈 In 2022, the EAEU member states managed to improve the following indicators as compared to 2021:
✅ Agricultural production grew by 9.4 percent and reached 11.5 trillion roubles;
✅ Grain production went up by 27 percent and reached almost 187 million tonnes;
✅ Fixed capital investment increased by 5.3 percent in 9 months, reaching 18.5 trillion roubles;
✅ Mutual trade grew by 10.3 percent;
✅ The number of completed construction projects increased by 5 percent (14.2 trillion roubles).
In 2022, the GDP of the EAEU was 173 trillion roubles.
👉 The EAEU space has all the necessary conditions for stable and comfortable work. After the launch of the common labour market, the residents of the union got the opportunity to travel between the EAEU countries with minimal difficulties; equal employment opportunities were created for all citizens of the member states in the EAEU space.
☝️ In addition, over 75 percent of mutual settlements between the EAEU countries have already been switched to national currencies.
