Eurasian Economic Commission Board and EAEU Business Council meet in Moscow

14 ноября 2017

A meeting of the Eurasian Economic Commission Board and the EAEU Business Council took place in Moscow. One of the main issues was the digital transformation of the economies of the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union. E-technologies will provide an opportunity to provide services remotely and minimize the role of customs services, which will make the work more comfortable.

Tigran Sargsyan, the Chairman of the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission: "The EAEU is now actively engaged in digital programs and we need to pursue a coordinated policy in this area, otherwise we will again have new barriers. It is impossible to imagine a modern integration association without a common digital transformation."

The topic of common markets for alcohol and tobacco products within the Union was discussed, too. Prospects and possible risks were considered.
