Maxim Ermolovich, Minister in charge of Competition and Antitrust Regulation of the Eurasian Economic Commission, held a working meeting with members of the Association of European Businesses in Moscow.

"For the Commission, interaction with businesses, including from European countries, is one of its strategic areas of work. The goal is to create the most favorable conditions for the development of fair competition in the cross-border markets of the Eurasian Economic Union," noted Maxim Ermolovich.

The meeting participants touched upon a wide range of issues, including abuse of dominance, anticompetitive agreements and unfair competition. They discussed the procedure for filing complaints on infringements of competition rules in the Union and EEC's competences in this field. The topical issues of public procurement in the EAEU and the specifics of their regulation in the context of Eurasian integration were discussed, too.

During the meeting an agreement was reached on representatives of the Association of European Businesses facilitating the work of the EEC Competition and Antitrust Regulation Unit in conducting sectoral analyses, in particular of the pharmaceutical market and electronic trading platforms (marketplaces).
