ArmInfo. Common economic interests of the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union stimulate the development of industrial partnership infrastructure. This was stated by the Minister of Industry and Agro-Industrial Complex of the Eurasian Economic Commission Goar Barseghyan at the plenary session of the international forum-exhibition "Russian Industrialist-2024".
According to her words, quoted by the press service of the EEC, an example of this is the adopted new strategic document "Main Directions of Industrial Cooperation for the Period up to 2030", which defines the priorities of the EAEU countries in the real sector of the economy. Among them are the unification of efforts in using the potential of the Union's internal market, the development of industrial and technological cooperation, and interaction in export markets. The EEC Minister also told the forum participants about the mechanism of financial support for industrial cooperation projects in the EAEU.
"This is a new level of integration in the real sector of the economy. As a support measure, subsidizing the interest rate on loans and credits issued by financial organizations for the implementation of joint projects from the Union budget has been defined.
The leaders of our countries have approved unprecedented conditions for such projects - this is a 100% compensation of the key rate of the Central Bank of the member state. The new mechanism has been developed as a pilot, and the corresponding system of preferential lending for projects will operate in the EAEU for five years," the EEC Minister emphasized.
Goar Barseghyan summarized that direct dialogue with business representatives will help achieve understanding in solving pressing issues of attracting participants to Eurasian cooperation projects based on mutual interest
