Putin: integration of Russia and Belarus cannot be compared with the European Union

Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that there will be results from the integration of Russia and Belarus.

"What are we talking about now? About synchronizing tax, customs, business laws. This is extremely important in order to provide a non-diverse understanding of how we will act together to achieve the highest result. These are really the main things", stressed the head of state.

According to Putin, the first step is "to synchronize our legislation in the economic sphere and antimonopoly, tax and customs legislation." "So we agreed on all this. We agreed, now we will start working. I am sure that there will be the results", he said.

At the same time, the Russian leader reminded that the level of integration of the two countries was much lower than that of the EU.

"Here we are building the Union State, and the level of our integration is still much lower than the level of integration in the European Union. It is simply incomparable.“ If our respective economic services come to some agreement on this matter",Putin concluded.
