Abstract
The report “Eurasian Economic Integration – 2017” reflects the directions, events and decisions that determine the current vectors of integration processes in the Eurasian Economic Union. The authors offer fresh data and analytical insights with respect to: macroeconomic development; changes in trade and investment capital flows; the labor market; and progress in non-tariff barriers elimination. They provide a detailed review of certain critical developments including: endorsement of the EAEU Customs Code; completion of negotiations on the common drugs and medical products market; and acceleration of efforts to create free trade areas.
