Expert: "The Eurasian Union in 2015 - a real perspective"

Expert: "The Eurasian Union in 2015 - a real perspective"The Eurasian Union of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan in 2015 will become a reality. But it will be long-term only if its base is not only economic, the deputy believes. Director of the Russian Institute for Strategic Studies Tamara Guzenkova.

The unification of Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, as well as, possibly, of other countries into the Eurasian Union is regarded by experts not only as a natural and inevitable process, but also very close in time. 1 January The 2015 agreement on the Eurasian Union may enter into force, said Leonid Slutsky, head of the State Duma Committee on CIS Affairs, Eurasian Integration and Relations with Compatriots, told reporters. Especially for the Window to Russia project, the deputy of the RISR, the head of the Center for the Study of the Problems of the CIS Countries, Tamara Guzenkova, commented on the parliamentarian’s statement.

- Do you think the Eurasian Union can become a reality as early as January 2015?

- I think this is a very real prospect, because the work of the Eurasian integration structures and, above all, of the Eurasian Economic Commission, is now proceeding in an accelerated mode. It must be said that this was also facilitated by events related to the exacerbation of the situation between Russia and Ukraine in August of this year. This situation clarified many things, showed who is who, how Ukraine is oriented to the West and to the East, and served as an additional impetus and stimulus for intensifying the process of Eurasian integration.

By the way, the very contour of the real and potential members of the Eurasian Union has recently changed. We learned that Armenia also expressed a desire to join the Customs Union. This process, of course, is not very fast, but the Customs Union works as an open system and may include new members. Therefore, the beginning of 2015 of the year is a very real task, for which the relevant people, structures and political forces have been working for a long time.

- Do you think that Ukraine is not interested in the Eurasian Union?

- Certainly interested, but not as a full member, but as an independent and separate country, which at the same time would not like to assume the obligations of membership, but to have its advantages. It is not by chance that Ukraine with such persistence tried to implement the 3 + 1 formats and the observer status at the vehicle. For a long time, we were seduced by the hope that Ukraine would approach this issue pragmatically and figure out where it would be more profitable for it to be, taking into account the sales markets and production structure. However, the most recent events, public speeches of Viktor Yanukovych and Mykola Azarov, and, most importantly, the meeting of the President of Ukraine with the Party of Regions faction, and the words that were spoken there all indicate that Ukraine has turned its back on the Customs Union, Russia and began its tortuous and full of trials the path of westernization.

- What difficulties may arise in the formation of the Eurasian Union? Kazakh parliamentarians, for example, oppose the creation of a common Eurasian parliament.

- A common parliament, a common currency, a unified educational standard, unified standards of social security and health protection are all issues and prospects for a more distant future. I am deeply convinced that no integration structure can be full-fledged for a long time if it is based solely and exclusively on economic components, unless there are common values ​​and common high standards that extend much more than just trade and economic relations. But now the next step is the task of working out exactly the general economic rules, tariffs and other conditions of cooperation, the task of forming the so-called four free spaces: the movement of goods, capital, labor and services. This is now a priority. It seems that the Kazakh side is simply not yet ready to announce the formation of a single parliament. Just as the Belarusian side, being our partner in the Union State, was not ripe to create a common currency within the framework of the Union State. There are some things that exist in the mind, in the project, but for which the time has not come yet. I think that the parliament, general educational standards, living standards and close ideology are the perspective of a not very distant, but rather distant future.

- Hillary Clinton, when she was US Secretary of State, stated that she would prevent the formation of the Eurasian Union - as a new version of the Soviet Union under the guise of economic integration. How can the United States interfere with the formation of the Eurasian Union?

- I regard the words of Clinton as an absolutely rude and unfriendly attack towards Russia, considering that it was Hillary Clinton who held the button in her hands, which marked the reset of Russian-American relations. I think this is her deep personal miscalculation, a mistake she will regret over time. Although in reality it reflects the interest of certain political forces in the United States. Many anti-Russian forces in America perceived this as a certain ideological attitude. But I think that such shouts cannot stop those clear and natural integration processes that occur in that part of the globe where the US wants to increase its influence, but cannot strengthen it to the extent that they still count on.

        A terrible dream of the West - the restored USSR. How many phrases were about the fact that only with Ukraine could Russia become a superpower. And therefore, this simply will not be allowed to take place, as if you did not want to. The resources of Russia and the European Union with the United States are currently simply not comparable. And the Russian Federation itself did a lot of stupid things about Ukraine, slowly but surely pushing them into the EU. request

        Again, the West is completely uninterested in bringing the Ukrainians to poverty, thereby pushing them towards Russia. And so they will allocate for them a certain niche to maintain their pants (at least). But, at the same time, Ukrainians will certainly not shout. And about the role that Ukraine played in the USSR, thanks to powerful industry, science, etc. have to forget .. recourse And it will be the backyards of Europe .. but it seems that Ukraine agrees on this ...

Here is the last nonsense - the allocated 750 million loan on quite decent terms, in contrast to the European Union, which does not give them a loan at all and will receive interest just from this loan. Kind of like lifting in the Association of the European Union. Our main "stupidity" for the newly born countries and their masters is that we still have not drowned in the Arctic Ocean.

          This is a bright prospect, in every sense. And you can see the reality in Iraq, Libya, Tunisia, well, in Yugoslavia. However, if the Ukrainians have a desire to live in the Baltic states - free will, saved paradise.

      Esenger how old are you? just by communication, Kazakh youth of 36 years old and below are 70-80% less than enthusiastic about the union under construction 2.0 and in 15 years they will steer with us. however, if over the years we enter into a close alliance with Russia, it will be difficult to break off relations, an example of Ukraine on the one hand and Georgia on the other. Our Slavic youth are for the union by 90%, but in 15 years they will be in an absolute minority because they are leaving or have plans to leave Kazakhstan. However, if the union brings tangible advantages over 15 years, the number of young supporters of the union may increase. my cousins ​​and their children got pluses this year and their position sounds something like this. If they don’t interfere with us and in our affairs, we are for an alliance, but if we start again “we will lead you into people and make you happy” then you don’t need to neither union nor carrots from the union. Well, my personal understanding is that the first union of Kazakhs and Russians, the result is not unambiguous and probably a union is not needed, but good-neighborly relations are needed without sucking in the gums and without throwing stones at each other.

        Sagat, welcome! I think that the CU will give a positive impetus to the development of the village. Three weeks ago, a caravan with our agricultural products was sent from Shymkent to Moscow, and last week the following information appeared
        South Kazakhstan region is investing up to 250 million US dollars in the creation of a trade and logistics center for the implementation of domestic food products in the Moscow region, kazinform.kz reports.

        An agreement on this was reached during a meeting of the delegation of the South Kazakhstan region with the leadership of the Moscow region.

        As the ambassador of Kazakhstan to Russia Galym Orazbakov noted, the Moscow region is one of the main subjects of Russia. “For us, the interest is the industrial, agricultural and scientific potential of the region. We have specific intentions to create a trade and logistics center here, ”the ambassador said.

        G. Orazbakov explained that Kazakhstani goods in the Russian market can successfully compete both in price and in quality. “Our entrepreneurs are ready to make direct investments. We are talking about the order of 250 million dollars in the creation of a transport and logistics center, ”the head of the diplomatic mission said.

        The Governor of the Moscow Region Andrey Vorobyov also emphasized that the territory of the Moscow Region is open for Kazakhstani business and investment. The potential of the region has all the necessary conditions for doing business, including markets, infrastructure.

        “I believe that an investment of the order of 200 million dollars is still a serious step. We welcome such a beginning. We are for civilized trade, which will allow everyday products from Kazakhstan to be delivered without delay, without intermediaries to the territory of the Moscow region, ”A. Vorobyov said. He added that by the end of this year, a platform for the implementation of the project will be provided.

        In turn, as the deputy akim of the South Kazakhstan region Saparbek Tuyakbaev explained, investment in the creation of a trade and logistics center in the Moscow region will be received from South Kazakhstan entrepreneurs. In the future, the provision of sites of this center for manufacturers from other regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan is not ruled out. Currently, the projects of a trade and logistics center worth from 50 to 250 million US dollars are being considered.

        The project will be implemented within the framework of the Agreement of Cooperation signed today between the Moscow Region Development Corporation and the Shymkent Social and Entrepreneurship Corporation.

        Visit of the delegation of the South Kazakhstan region to Moscow, incl. to conclude specific agreements, organized at the initiative of the Embassy of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the Russian Federation.

          hello Andrew about this and I write that my relatives received a gingerbread from the TS, but most often there are no gingerbread without a carrot. Kazakhs went through this in the first union when it was said we take over international relations, defense and our money (emission center) and you are loyal and pay taxes, internal administration, the court, the language, etc. we don’t mess with and what did you come to after a certain number of years? So I scratch my turnips and I think, as if they wouldn’t get involved again from all over, it seems like it’s just started debugging, so I’m writing. Can we wait and see at the TS stage? as in a song a coachman do not drive horses.

            And with what fright will all these horror stories in the vehicle be? TS is a cartel conspiracy, not a syndicate. Well, if it’s not happy, it seems like there is a desire like in Ukraine — I’ll enter here I’ll fulfill it but not request Well, it’s not a question, the TS is not the USSR and never will be. You can always run away relatively painlessly. The main thing is that Nazarbayev and his receiver would blow our ears about Earazes, it's not our topic, yes, but you can become an emission center when your economic weight in relation to Russia will be like that of Germany to Greece, then you will dictate, and we will do it with our teeth gritted and remembering that they are independent, proud and very ancient. This, by the way, is one of the reasons why I don’t believe in EurAsEC and wrote about it.

Gathering all the bays and a ceremonial meeting in peacetime is good and beautiful - all well-fed and cheerful under their flags, but something tells me - God forbid something serious, again we have to take a puff for everyone.

          And YOU, dear Essenger, excuse me, of course, you were sitting without work with small children? Or have your loved ones or neighbors never experienced? After all, we are talking about jobs, new factories, enterprises. It’s not y me, but y my friends, relatives, etc. there was a ringing coin in his pocket. Without markets, we’ll recover. Factories will be idle, we will go through natural resources and that’s all. Russia is not going to force their history and language, to impose something on us. Another thing is that the government is obliged to compensate for the increase in prices to the population - especially state employees. Making real salaries at the level of Russia - there are all the possibilities. They are obliged to act, otherwise the population will turn away from the vehicle. hi

        Hello. Sorry to interfere, dear Countrymen. But the meaning of the TS for Kazakhstan is visible in the following (and then EURASES):
        1. Economic. New jobs and rising welfare of citizens. Why open car assembly plants, develop the aircraft industry, build programs for raising agriculture? Where to put it all? 300 cars (by 000) where to go? Why do we need 2020 sah. factories? Why build a car and rail. roads are Western China - Western Europe, if the barrier is blocked at any moment on the border? You know, I drove loads from Moscow to Alma-Aty before and after the creation of the vehicle. BEFORE - I had to lose load at the border and apply all sorts of gray schemes, NOW - they will bring it to the warehouse and you only need to pay VAT for a month (Austrian goods) and payment by bank transfer. . ECONOMIC TRADE-ENGINE.
        2. Security. It is, as they say, no comment. I just want to add that in my opinion, the Union of Slavic and Turkic peoples will give us guarantees that we will remain as peoples, as an ethnic group and become one of the world centers. Such a Union will become a bone in the throat of all ill-wishers.
        At the same time, I understand perfectly well that we do not need a Union in which the decision to build a bathhouse or stadium was decided outside the Republic. But the unification of legislation, economic strategy, general positions (consensus) in foreign policy, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Defense, and intelligence must necessarily be. Otherwise, there will be a mess. The criminals will be hiding in neighboring republics (because the laws are different), we will build giant competing enterprises, etc. etc. .
        So I’m only for the Union - I want my children not to know what war and hunger are. hi

          hi But this is already quite a monopoly on the principle of a syndicate with supranational bodies and the problems in creating it, external and kindled from above inside the roof. And I don’t have any idea which side and how to solve it. There’s not enough economy here, I really need an idea without which the propaganda machine of such an alliance will really work at idle.

            The idea is ONLY ONE - LIVING WELL, AT THE GUEST TO DRIVE TO ANOTHER AND TO GRAVE FROM SIDE.
            One cannot do without supranational bodies, including the parliament (the influential commission is at the end). Without this, it will be a dyrd and no Union will be obtained — one sign with some official who decides nothing. We now need real things, otherwise the neighbors will scatter over all sorts of NATO. We need a real increase in welfare - if the authorities do not understand this, then we will take time.

          Continuation. We are still taking our first steps in TS and not everyone likes everything. Including me. And the increased prices and not completely "pure play". But I think all these are costs, everything will be lost - there are opportunities for this. I mean, what to raise the social. payments and raise salaries y the government has the opportunity. For instance . Commercial production begins at Kashagan. Just a question: how will this be disposed of at the top. So let's see - everything is just beginning.
          It was not in history that the people liked the authorities. But the vector is set, in my opinion, correctly. In the south, with Uzbekistan, there are eternal problems, so far there is nothing to catch. Trade is low. In the east, China. But the political Union is not real, swallowed and not choked. But it’s very economically profitable - a big market (here it’s interesting: before joining the CU, China didn’t put our village, for example, they asked us to load grain into bags; now we are ready to read whether the permanent cross-border cooperation committee is open and to open villages). cheap and long money. Friendship is certainly necessary for this. In the west is the Caspian - but there are direct competitors to our exported goods (except for grain, except) and small markets. SO THAT ONLY RUSSIA. NO ALTERNATIVES. No wonder Nazarbayev has been talking about integration since the collapse of the USSR, then Central Asia, now with Russia. We need markets. According to Unesco estimates, one land in Kazakhstan can feed a billion people and are not hungry themselves. And we’ll close ourselves like Tashkent - nothing good will happen, we won’t be able to raise well-being. hi
          Recently I received guests from Kiev. "The authorities give you a breath - look how many jeeps, how many new cars. What roads, cameras are stuck, people are constantly running somewhere. And what about us? Yes, you were, you saw everything. 500 dollars. Is considered an acceptable salary in Kiev - and the prices for real estate are almost the same, or even higher. ".

So far, I see only the exploitation of the old CCCP brand, which, due to the lack of an ideology equal to the communist one, CANNOT be restored. Comments from Essenger and other comrades from the field, you are proof of this ... And the mythical Eurazes, like the muddy, optional Batkino, "union state" of Russia does not need and is dangerous for the integrity of existence with an abundance of national republics in its composition, which at one time quite specifically Babai Mentemir from Kazan spoke out, well, seeing Batkino's further steps, I understood that all this is empty razvodilovo and calmed down. Yes, we ourselves are in fact the existence and occupied territory of the Eurasian Union, with a single currency and a federal structure. We do not even need the option of the European Union, we are not Germany. And everything else will end with a headache like CMEA. And enough of the cons. , it is better to spend on something more specific.

    Today, Russia has introduced a temporary ban on the import of Belarusian pork and pork products into the country. The official reason is the unfavorable situation with African swine fever in Belarus, according to the Rosselkhoznadzor website.

    Rospotrebnadzor prohibits the import into Russia of almost 500 types of dairy products from Belarus due to the fact that manufacturers have not reissued permits in accordance with the requirements of the technical regulation, which entered into force in December 2008. According to Gazeta.Ru, this was stated by the chief state sanitary doctor of Russia Gennady Onishchenko.

    A new trade war may begin between Russia and Belarus: after the arrest of Uralkali CEO Vladislav Baumgertner in Belarus, claims about the quality of Belarusian milk arose from the head of Rospotrebnadzor Gennady Onishchenko.

    Yeah. Ukraine behaves in its "nezalezhnaya" manner.
    It seems to me when the power will change, and it will change soon, because Regions create one chaos. Not for nothing that the GDP, after a 15-minute meeting with Yanyk, went to Medvedchuk to a summer residence in the Crimea. I think about the new candidate for the presidency of Ukraine it has already been decided and it is clear who will lose the support of Moscow, and who will receive it in full.
    And be that as it may, but integration within the EAC is much better than standing with an outstretched hand on the threshold of the EU for 100500 years in the hope of becoming a full partner. The EU is also not stupid. To accept a country with such (I'm not afraid of this word) huge economic, social, etc. problems in the composition of their "friendly family" - suicide. Germany alone will not cope.
    And there is one more point that can contribute to the entry of Ukraine into the EAC (CU):
    namely, the factor that the majority of the "powerful" in Ukraine make a profit in "dirty" money, i.e. corruption flourishes as does lawlessness. In the EU, all these fellow oligarchs are quickly jailed and the fairy tale is over. So Ukraine may well take a position or drift as it is now, or it will be forced to join the CU. But the irony is that our oligarchs are also not made with a finger. In short, there are options and predicting something is not a rewarding business!
    P.S. I, as a citizen of the Russian Federation, come from Ukraine, Nizhyn, Chernihiv Oblast, for joining the EAC (CU) only because the Russian Federation, Belarus and Ukraine are the fist of Slavism and Orthodoxy. If you break it, it will be the beginning of the end in perspective. Zbigniew Brzezinski knows this very well and has built his career on it - be he rest in peace, even though the dog is still alive !!!!

    Not everything is clear to me with the TS. It is not clear why lame ducks like Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are needed in it. They will take more from Russia than give. Or quality doesn’t matter now, will we take it in quantity? Expanding Russia's sphere of influence? Well, even without a vehicle, these countries are already dependent on Russia.

      You're not right. All the Republics you listed, and now the States, made a feasible and big contribution to the piggy bank of the former USSR. This includes minerals and highly processed products, as well as the potential of scientific and design ideas. If you are bored, list for yourself in the mind the names of many designers and scientists ... and draw a conclusion. Without fanaticism, just think for 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately, Ukraine (as I believe) is a cut chunk, yes, with blood and pain, resentment to trembling hands, but alas, ah.

What once was in Soviet times is a story from which only a bitter taste remains. But Ukraine (do not think that I elevate Ukraine, because I myself am not the best thought about it) is a big chunk of the former Slavic community both in terms of human and natural resources, and in terms of culture and community of peoples. You can't surrender Ukraine to the EU!

              And definitely worse than in Armenia

              The Armenian society, by and large, considers it a priority to strengthen ties with the countries of the former USSR, in particular Russia, than with the European Union. 92% of Armenians consider Russia a friendly country, and more than 50% favor closer integration with Russia. This was stated at a press conference in Yerevan on June 24, 2013 by the director of the Armenian office of Gallup International Association Aram Navasardyan.
              By the way, this survey was conducted before the statement of President Serzh Sargsyan on Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union.
              This is an official survey for you, but in fact I can say with responsibility that it is who doesn’t believe. Welcome to Armenia. See for yourself what attitude Russians have to Russia in Armenia.

                and Armenians have no other choice. If they lose the support of the Russian Federation, then Azerbaijan will very quickly reduce Armenia to no. By the way, there were rumors that Armenia has a certain cooperation with the EU and the states. The question is that this cooperation is limited only by the desire of the latter. Otherwise, that Armenia would be sold and would not have time to blink.
                and in general to connect the future of the EAC with Armenia - counting on it is like building a house on a crystal foundation.
                I agree with Comrade Kisly in one:

                        Russians are called bad patriots, but this is a superficial view of things. Yes, we love to scold our country. But here are the statistics. From 1990 to 2000 (the most difficult years) about a little more than a million people left Russia for permanent residence abroad. Less than one percent of the population over 10 years is simply a tiny amount of emigration. Moreover, of this million, about 400 thousand are Germans and Jews who left Russia before that.
                        So we really love our country very much, no kidding. And we don't want to leave, and we don't want to unite with anyone either. And "imperial sentiment" is internet chatter, nothing more. They are alien to the overwhelming majority of Russians.

    The re-creation of the USSR is impossible, since it is impossible to re-establish the monolithic and monopoly ruling party, and only the USSR rested on this. One or another form of integration is possible (customs, military-political, etc.), but we must forget once and for all about a single state. There are no and are not foreseen any prerequisites for this. Different states have developed with different political systems and different interests of the ruling circles.
    As for Ukraine, its integration into the CU is impossible due to strong anti-Russian sentiments. Moreover, these sentiments are shared by everyone - the Banderaites, liberals, conservatives and communists. Only some talk about their dislike for the "damned motskals", and others about their dislike for the "Putin regime." But in fact, there is no difference. It is no coincidence that there are many parties in Ukraine, but there are no influential pro-Russian political forces. Such a party in Ukraine will never have an electorate.

Now the situation has changed a lot. And I personally do not want to return to the old. Enough with the Union. I lived in the Soviet Union, now I will live without it.

    Let's see how the Eurasian Union survives the withdrawal of ISAF troops from Afghanistan. Which states in the territories of the former USSR will remain in place by mid-2015 after the impending consequences of the withdrawal, and then it will be possible to talk about the prospects!

      Are you talking about the "coming invasion of the Taliban"? If so, it’s not even funny.
      The states of Central Asia have primarily internal problems.
      And partisan formations (like the Taliban) are able to wage war only on their own land, with the support of the local population, speaking the same language with them. That's why they are partisans.
      An invasion requires a regular army — with supplies, reconnaissance, heavy weapons, and aircraft.
      If there is a threat from the Taliban, then it is purely ideological. But this is not a question of 2015.

        In Tajikistan, in the early 90s, local "vovchiks" and "yurchiks" slaughtered each other without much help from the Taliban. I don’t think that since then the contradictions have disappeared.

          All this "mess" ended before the NATO troops entered Afghanistan.
          Once again, all the problems of Central Asia, these are internal problems. If they are, then there is a civil war. And the presence of NATO in Afghanistan does not affect anything.

              The Taliban were already in power there. So what? Occupied Central Asia? They could not even really control their own north.
              Personally, it makes no difference who is in power. Whoever is, there will still be an internal war.

                  I have already said several times. If you do not understand, I repeat.
                  "Jihad" in Central Asia is possible, but it can only be a consequence domestic, local issues, and Afghanistan has nothing to do with it. It has absolutely no effect on the situation in Central Asia.
                  Therefore, I repeat - the situation in Afghanistan interests me no more than the situation in Honduras. The entry of NATO troops into Afghanistan has never improved the security of Russia. Rather, the opposite. Drugs from there began to arrive more.
                  Although, it is clear that Ukraine has strong sympathies for NATO. But I do not live in Ukraine. And it makes no difference to me whether the pro-Western regime will stay in Afghanistan or not. There is no use for the present Afghan regime for Russia, it has not been and will not be. That the Taliban, that Karzai - no difference.

            it affects only drug trafficking, which increased by 1000% with the introduction of NATO troops into Afghanistan. Even the Taliban. when they had a certain power, they fought against drugs. And tens of thousands of people per year die from heroin in Russia!

          We urgently go to ask Obama not to withdraw troops from there.

          The NATO troops in Afghanistan are only engaged in self-protection, and nothing more. If the Taliban could start a war in Central Asia, they would start long ago, and your Americans would not stop them. Rather, they would help, as they are helping the Islamists in Syria. So keep your horror stories with you. The fewer American troops in the region, the better for Russia.

            How to do anything? Organization of drug trafficking in indirect ways, the supply of weapons and weapons. The coalition forces will not completely leave Afghanistan. They will leave several or one small base for reconnaissance and assistance to the Taliban. Horror stories or not, but 201 base in Tajikistan will be thoroughly strengthened. The consequences of the lack of measures to protection and control of the Russian-Kazakh border, the population of the Russian Federation is living on itself. Practice will show.

    I think Ukraine itself is a brake)


    China has signed a contract for the agricultural cultivation of three million hectares of Ukrainian land for a period of 50 years, which means that this Eastern European country gives 5 percent of the total area or 9 percent of its agricultural land to feed the growing population of China.

    Under the terms of the deal between Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, or XPCC and the Ukrainian agricultural company KSG Agro, grain and pigs raised in the Dnipropetrovsk region will be sold at discounted prices to two state-owned grain companies in China. The project starts with one hundred thousand acres and will eventually expand to three million. Here is some context for what it looks like:

    The deal became possible after Ukraine lifted the ban on the purchase of its land by foreigners last year. As part of the deal, the China Import-Export Bank provided Ukraine with a $ 3 billion loan for agricultural development. In exchange for its products, Ukraine will receive seeds, equipment, a fertilizer plant (Ukraine imports fertilizers about a billion dollars annually), and a plant for the production of plant protection agents. XPCC also states that it will help build a highway in the Ukrainian Autonomous Republic of Crimea, as well as a bridge across the Kerch Strait, which is the country's transport and industrial center.
