". Russia’s entry into the WTO after 18 years of difficult negotiations is an important event, historically, economically and in terms of trade. Russia’s decision is also an advantage for the EU, if we consider that we are its main source of imports and a key investment partner. Russia’s anchoring to the multilateral trading system is a further step in improving the bilateral EU-Russia relationship. However, many problems are yet to be resolved, of which the main ones include eliminating a number of potentially trade restrictive measures, legislation including preferences for domestic producers in public procurement and the establishment of seasonal import duties on certain types of sugar; and new legislation on a recycling scheme for vehicles. The temporary bans, unilateral temporary tariff increases and protectionist measures and barriers to open and fair trade must be removed. In addition there is the issue of counterfeit products and the need for measures in the field of intellectual property rights. Rapid progress should also be made towards implementing the rule of law, as certain convictions and penalties inflicted recently are cause for concern for democracy. Economic modernisation has many facets and they should all be considered by Russia, to strengthen its new bilateral relationship with Europe."@en1
