21 Nov 2025 Gohar Barseghyan: "The EAEU is a significant contributor to strengthening the global food security" This was stated by Gohar Barseghyan, Minister in charge of Industry and Agriculture of the Eurasian Economic Commission, at the headquarters of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Rome. "Recognizing the importance of global food security, the Eurasian Economic Union States are significant contributors to combating hunger by supplying high-quality produce to the global agricultural market. The Union is a leading global exporter of wheat, sunflower oil and frozen fish, the second largest exporter of wheat flour and rapeseed oil and the third largest exporter of barley and oil meal," the EEC Minister pointed out. Gohar Barseghyan held a working meeting with Maurizio Martina, FAO Deputy Director-General. The two sides defined promising areas of cooperation in the agricultural sector, including to create conditions for the stable development of the Member economies, modernize the agricultural sector comprehensively and improve the competitiveness of national economies. The working meetings of the EEC Minister with the heads of diplomatic missions of the EAEU countries to FAO and other international organizations in Rome discussed promising integration areas and its enhancement in the agricultural sector. "I am certain that the joint action of the Five countries will help counter the challenges arising in the world and reinforce the Union's status as a crucial partner in the field of global food security," Gohar Barseghyan stressed. "The Eurasian Economic Commission in close cooperation with the Member States is ready to continue and enhance the strategic partnership with regional organizations and countries for making the future more sustainable, stable, inclusive and hunger-free for all." The working meetings with Gohar Barseghyan were attended by heads of diplomatic missions of the EAEU countries and representatives of over 20 FAO Member States. The event was organized as part of the 2025 chairmanship of the Republic of Belarus in the EAEU governing bodies.
21 Nov 2025 Valentin Tataritsky: "The uniform application of the Union's technical regulations is an important tool to ensure trust in the unified technical regulation system" Valentin Tataritsky, Minister in charge of Technical Regulation of the Eurasian Economic Commission, told about the necessity and importance of the uniform application of technical regulations in the Eurasian Economic Union Member States and the role of the Union's governing bodies in the technical regulation processes at the plenary session of the EAEU Court International Conference in Minsk on November 20. "Creating the unified technical regulation system in the Eurasian economic space is our basic tool," Valentin Tataritsky mentioned. "Having the status of direct-action documents, the EAEU technical regulations have not only created a system for regulating relations between manufacturers, importers and consumers but have also become a basis for cooperative and trade ties and the subject of interstate agreements on mutual trade terms." The EEC Minister touched upon new decisions to eliminate legal gaps in the unified technical regulation system within the EAEU. He paid special attention to the tools to achieve uniformity in applying technical regulation provisions. According to Valentin Tataritsky, timely publication of technical regulations and bringing their contents to the executors and monitoring of applying technical regulations used as a feedback mechanism that enables identifying problematic situations requiring solutions at the EAEU level or in a certain Member State in 2024–2025 were supplemented with the procedure for mandatory periodic assessment of the scientific and technical level of the enforced Union's technical regulations and lists of standards thereto. "Such assessment is aimed at maintaining a high level of safety requirements in our countries," the EEC Minister said. Now the Commission together with the Member States is working on the Procedure for Preparing Clarifications on Applying the Union's Technical Regulations. "This December the draft Procedure will be reviewed by the Commission's Board," Valentin Tataritsky clarified. "We believe that the procedure for preparing clarifications on applying technical regulation provisions will become another important and relevant instrument for ensuring a uniform approach to applying the Union's technical regulations. It is fully integrated with the existing technical regulation system and facilitates its further fine-tuning.
