European Union Viewed by Russian Business
The article covers the past, today and the future of the European Union as a neighbor and a major trade partner of the Russian Federation. The author strongly believes that notwithstanding current international sanctions there are still good opportunities for expanding cross-border as well as small and medium business cooperation on a mutually beneficial basis in various areas including knowledge-driven economy. Inviting foreign non-executive directors from the EU and Russia to the boards of directors of the two sides would contribute both to raising corporate governance level as well as to improving mutual trust on the level of business which bilateral Russia-EU relations lack so much now.
