It is necessary to unify the mechanisms used to support business initiatives in the Eurasian Economic Union. The opinion was voiced by Vladimir Karyagin, Chairman of the Presidium of the Republican Confederation of Entrepreneurship, Chairman of the Minsk City Union of Entrepreneurs and Employers, on 28 October, BelTA has learned. Vladimir Karyagin spoke during the online video briefing hosted by the website of the National Press Center of Belarus and the information and analysis website of the Union State of Belarus and Russia.
Vladimir Karyagin said: “In the Eurasian Economic Union it is primarily necessary to unify the mechanisms used to support entrepreneurship initiatives starting with startups. Let's take a look at the European Union. The private sector is internationalized over there. Every year the European Union updates the so-called small business act. It is a high-level document. The European Union's resources are allocated for implementing it.” He stated that Belarus could also take part in various internationalization programs. “Our Republican Confederation of Entrepreneurship has been included into a program of the so-called European network of enterprises. European Union funds are used to arrange businessmen visits from 26 European countries to Belarus,” explained Vladimir Karyagin.
In his words, the Eurasian Economic Union Treaty takes care of issues, which are sensitive for the national economies, primarily major industrial complexes, including private ones. However, it poorly stipulates the coordinated mechanisms meant to support small and medium businesses.
