Crimea is not a " black hole " between Russia and Ukraine
The Minister of Crimea Oleg Saveliev until sees no danger for the Crimea on imports of Ukrainian and European subjects, But in case of necessity makes a promise to impact that the Peninsula has not become a loophole for the supply of cheap products from the European Union through Ukraine in the rest of the territory of Russia.
Ukraine last week signed an agreement about unification with the European Union, involving the development of a free trade zone. The Russian authorities with private parties told about the intention to protect Russian producers from competition with inexpensive and high-quality goods from Europe, who are able to pour from Ukraine.
" As for the Crimea, in reality, the question of good or bad getting cheap European Ukrainian or American subjects in Crimea, If we derive in brackets hit them on the rest of the Market of the Russian Federation? This question before the end of the answer is no. Because If we now will carry out the substitution of supply on the Ukrainian, Russian, we get a price shock, That is, we will get 2, 5-3 times jump of the prices in the consumer basket and nothing good from this will not, " said Savelyev Last news .
According to the Minister, Russia has now may in fact be closed production delivery from Ukraine in the Crimea, providing the whole set of customs and other procedures. But Because the safety of imported products from Ukraine on the border controls of the Rosselkhoznadzor, there is concern That the situation with the quality of the delivered items will come out from under surveillance.
" as long as we do that, But the question of protection of the Russian market will undoubtedly be resolved, and, of course, taking into consideration the situation in the Crimea. For this reason precisely in no way has the opportunity to be hidden transit through the Crimea in the Krasnodar territory cheap European products in circumvention of the regulations. There are no " black holes " of course, we do not allow this, " makes a promise Saveliev.
for this reason, according to him, the government is currently preparing the tools that will allow to settle the situation in Crimea in case of need.
" If we speak about the special customs regulation, we have the ability to control How input through Perekop from Ukraine, through the customs border, and the output is in Kerch, Feodosia. For this reason, this balance is appropriate for development of Crimea, and the passage of this transition period, we will find and we will be able to apply, As instruments pledged under any scenario, " explained the Minister.
As for the Russian market as a whole, according to Savelyev, in order to prevent a flood of cheap items from the EU through Ukraine, it is reasonable to equate " economically " Ukraine to the European Union.
since the level of subsidies, for example, agriculture in the European Union greatly exceeds Russia, Then, of course, any preferences European products in the Russian Federation is not provided, he recalled.
" As soon as Ukraine implements the rules that are laid down in the economic part of the agreement, It immediately begins to spread to Ukraine, As Ukraine gets preferences from EU, and we have them revoked, " said the Saveliev.
now trade between Russia and Ukraine is regulated by the agreement on the free trade area of the CIS countries. Ukraine to date was not announced its intention to withdraw from the Treaty.
Traditional consumers of the Crimean products in the world still take an interest in it, assured Saveliev.
" Another thing is That now during the transition period of very many issues related to the re-registration of factories, with " pulling " of current assets that were frozen in Ukrainian banks, with the launch of the new system of Contracting. The scale of change that have to do to make It all work properly, it is difficult to assess, " explained the Minister.
for this reason the problem of the Crimean manufacturers currently mostly connected with administrative delays, and not with the lack of markets." Believe me That with competitive in the world market the products of the Crimean manufacturers problems will not be ", - says the head of Minkrum.
as an example, he cited the chemical company " Crimean Titan ", whose products are in demand in India and China." The titanium market is big enough, Russia it does not last, If not, 1st, the player. For this reason, how will the substitution of contracts (in case of refusal of the EU-as amended) of this scarce in the world of products, It's technical issues, " said Savelyev.
The European Union in the framework of measures on non-recognition of the annexation of Crimea to Russia with 25 June imposed a ban on imports of items from the Peninsula, are allowed to import only the products that have been certified by the Ukrainian authorities.
