After 19 years of negotiations, in August Russia became a member of the World Trade Organisation. The European Union is a strategic trade partner of Russia and the leading partner in terms of import and export indicators. At the same time, Russia has become the EU’s second source of imports and its fourth export destination. I voted in favour of this resolution welcoming Russia’s accession to the WTO. In the medium and long term, this will boost trade flows between the EU and Russia even further, and will stimulate growth and job creation both in the EU and in Russia. I also welcome the resolution’s important provision that implementation of the ‘Common Steps towards visa-free travel’ be one of the main conditions for EU-Russia trade and investment."@en1
