EEC and Peru discussed possibilities for increasing mutual trade turnover

Igor Nazaruk, Director of the Trade Policy Department, held a meeting with Juan Genaro del Campo Rodriguez, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Peru to the Russian Federation, at the Eurasian Economic Commission’s venue. During the negotiations, applying the unified system of tariff preferences in the Eurasian Economic Union as well as issues of further development of trade and economic cooperation between the EAEU and its Member States and the Latin American Republic were, in particular, discussed.

"As far back as 2016, it was determined that the criteria for building a unified system of tariff preferences in the EAEU would change. As a result, in the spring of this year, it was decided that the States exceeding the income level set by the World Bank would be excluded from the support list since October," Igor Nazaruk informed his partners.

Following the meeting, the sides agreed on further active interaction to resolve all issues arising on the bilateral agenda as soon as possible.
