01 Jan 1970 Information exchange between authorized bodies in circulating veterinary medicines to be carried out according to temporary algorithm On March 13, the Eurasian Economic Commission's Board adopted a recommendation "On the algorithm of information exchange between the authorized bodies (expert institutions) of the Eurasian Economic Union Member States, as well as between the authorized bodies (expert institutions) of the Member States and the Eurasian Economic Commission in circulation of veterinary medicines".  The proposed algorithm envisages the procedure for the exchange of information between the Union countries' authorized bodies, both between themselves and with the Commission, file formats, as well as transmission deadlines. This will make it possible to systematize the work of the Member States' authorized bodies and the Commission in implementing the Rules regulating the circulation of veterinary medicines in the Union's customs territory from March 13, 2024, until enactment of the relevant common processes developed by the Commission within the Union, as well as the full readiness of national information resources.

01 Jan 1970 Interaction between EEC and diplomatic missions: most important tool for EAEU international positioning This was stated by Valentina Yanutenok, Deputy Director of the Eurasian Economic Commission’s Integration Development Department, during a lecture to ambassadors, permanent representatives, consul ambassadors, deputy permanent representatives and consuls general of Russia as part of the Higher Diplomatic Courses. The event, organized by the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, took place on April 20 in Moscow. As part of the lecture, Valentina Yanutenok touched upon various aspects of the Eurasian Economic Union's functioning amidst economic shocks and external challenges. The EEC representative highlighted in detail the implementation of the Strategic Directions for Developing the Eurasian Economic Integration until 2025, including new guidelines on the international agenda, as well as emphasized the special role of diplomatic missions in positioning the Eurasian theme. “Today, the Union demonstrates stability and steady growth in key macroeconomic indicators amid geopolitical and sanctions confrontations. After all, this is the result of practical implementation of the Strategy-2025,” Valentina Yanutenok noted.   Regional integration contributes to establishing a multipolar world and achieving geopolitical balance. The EAEU has emerged as an organic element of the global economic architecture. A flexible infrastructure has been created that encompasses key partners and makes it possible to hold a comprehensive dialogue with states and regional integration associations in the interests of improving the Union countries' economic stability. “Owing to the active position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, we managed to successfully implement a number of areas on the Union's international agenda. There is a good practice of interaction between the EEC and foreign missions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation on the issues of the EAEU international activities. The Commission feels the support from Russia in terms of implementing the international agenda,” Valentina Yanutenok emphasized. At present, the Union Member States feel the strongest pressure in the information space. In such circumstances, it is essential to present unequivocal and unambiguous information about current activities, using the state-of-the-art communication channels. “It seems important to continue the course of promoting the ideas and practices of the Eurasian integration on various international platforms. In this context, interaction with the ministries of foreign affairs and diplomatic missions of the Union countries is of particular importance,” Valentina Yanutenok concluded.

Therefore, the classification of medical devices will take into account the approaches currently adopted in the international practice, which will improve the availability of medical products in the Eurasian Economic Union countries, as well as the export potential of their manufacturers. Besides, Decisions No. 116 and No. 123 of the EEC Board dated July 24, 2018 on differentiating the elements of medical products and the criteria for including several modifications of a medical product in a single registration certificate were declared invalid.

01 Jan 1970 Transition period for EAEU technical regulation on products for civil defense and protection from natural and industrial emergencies extended The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission extended until June 1, 2026 the transitional provisions of the Eurasian Economic Union's technical regulation "On Safety of Products Intended for Civil Defense and Protection from Natural and Industrial Emergencies" (TR EAEU 050/2021). The deadline for transitional provisions to the said technical regulation, which was to expire on December 31, 2024, was extended at the proposal of the Russian Federation due to the need to complete the system of technical regulation in respect of products for which no mandatory requirements were previously established. This includes the development of a necessary number of standards to ensure the implementation of the technical regulation TR EAEU 050/2021 and testing, as well as the accreditation of conformity assessment bodies and their inclusion in the unified register. "Establishment of transitional provisions is a security procedure for the purpose of phased transition to the technical regulation requirements and issuing documents on conformity assessment," noted Valentin Tataritsky, the EEC Minister in charge of Technical Regulation. The decision of the Commission's Board shall come into effect after 10 calendar days have elapsed from the date of its official publication and shall apply to legal relations arising from January 1, 2025 in order to eliminate the gap in applying transitional provisions.
