". The Russian accession to the WTO is a remarkable achievement for the country’s economic development and a significant opportunity for exporters and investors around the world. Russia, with a population of 140 million, is the last major world economy to join the organisation. Its membership ends the anomaly of having Russia, a leading oil and natural gas exporter and a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, outside the world trade system. The World Bank estimates that Russia will gain between USD 53 and USD 177 billion per year because of WTO membership, reducing poverty and raising the living standards of millions of people. I also would like to underline that this accession is a further step in improving the bilateral EU-Russia relationship. The EU and Russia are interdependent trading partners and for the first time both entities will be bound by multilateral rules and obligations for their mutual trade. For these reasons, I value the possibility of concluding a New EU-Russia Partnership and Cooperation Agreement as a further opportunity to contribute to an enhanced partnership for both."@en1
