Russia and Belarus have reached mutual understanding on integration issues. This is how Vladimir Putin evaluated the work of the Union State

During a big press conference, the Russian President noted that Belarus is not an easy negotiator. However, even at this stage of integration, citizens of the two countries can feel the preferences of the process, including free movement and distribution in the labor market. At the same time, Mr. Putin stressed that there is still a lot of work to be done. The topic of creating a single currency is not yet on the agenda, it is an issue for the future, the President of Russia noted. Before embarking on large-scale changes, the states need to synchronize their legislation.
