Prime ministers of EAEU, Cuba, Moldova, Uzbekistan to meet in Kazan on 29-30 April

An agreement on the common market of natural gas has been drafted in the Eurasian Economic Union, the press service of the Eurasian Economic Commission told BelTA. The agreement was drafted by the Russian Federation and forwarded to the Eurasian Economic Commission. The fact was mentioned by Chairman of the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission Mikhail Myasnikovich at a session of the committee on resolving differences of opinion and disputes and on ensuring the freedom of merchandise movement in the Eurasian Economic Union in the commission’s HQ on 26 April. Mikhail Myasnikovich noted the document had already been forwarded to the Eurasian Economic Union member states. The Council of the Eurasian Economic Commission would like the intrastate reconciliation of the draft agreement to be done fast because the document will be forwarded for consideration of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council. It is supposed to be ratified next year. The Energy Department of the Eurasian Economic Commission has already worked out a detailed schedule for reconciling the document. It was noted that the draft agreement needs to be expanded with common rules of access to gas transport systems. Russia has yet to submit those rules.
