Foreign economic activity as a source of economic growth [Внешнеэкономическая Деятельность Как Источник Экономического Роста]

The Russian authorities are set an ambitious task of increasing exports and building competitive non-primary sectors. At the same time, it should not be forgotten that foreign economic activity in general and the development of exports in particular cannot by themselves be self-sufficient directions of economic policy, but should work for the main goal - ensuring long-term, sustainable economic growth. At present, the potential contribution of foreign economic activity in the growth of the Russian economy is not fully disclosed. This potential can be achieved by intensifying work in the main areas: export support; deepening cooperation within the EAEU; integration with foreign countries; use of the WTO site in multilateral and plurilateral formats; Introduction of the best world practices and standards. The report shows what additional macroeconomic benefits can be obtained in the coming years, if we consistently carry out work in these areas.
