The Creation

The current state of the economy and society is influenced by the global integration processes taking place in Eurasia - the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union, which should unite the markets for resources, goods and capital of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union. One of the aspects of this process is the creation of a unified electricity market, which ensures free flow of electrical energy, free pricing and competition in the power industry. The purpose of this study is to study the degree of readiness of national energy systems for integration and to identify problems that impede the formation of the Common Electricity Market of the Eurasian Economic Union. The methods used were statistical analysis tools, a graphical method, comparisons and descriptions. The study was carried out on the basis of the use of information provided in the open access of the Eurasian Economic Union, national statistical services and energy companies. The authors have identified the main goals and objectives, as well as the requirements and expected results of the creation of the Common Electricity Market. As a result of the analysis of national power systems, a number of problems were identified that impede their convergence, including inconsistencies in the scale of production, various pricing mechanisms and electricity price regulation, differences in the energy balance of the Eurasian Economic Union member states, different levels of electricity prices, and a particular opinion Of the Republic of Belarus to the concept of market formation and the lack of unified borders of Armenia with other participating countries Union. The findings of the study indicate that by the stated date, namely July 1, 2019, the Common Electricity Market will most likely not be created for the reasons stated. To solve the identified problems, the authors propose several tools, one of the most important among them is the mechanism of regulatory and legal regulation of electricity markets at the national and supranational levels. Also, according to the authors, in the integration processes in the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union should consider the world experience of such political and economic associations.

Russian procurement regulation exists not merely by itself, but also in the framework of the formation of unified approaches to procurement regulation within the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). These approaches today are based on a common methodology, although national laws of each state demonstrate various options for implementation. The integration processes affected by the creation of the EAEU also influence public procurement. The formation of a single economic space and unified procurement market as economic bases cannot exist without bringing the national legislation of EAEU member states on public procurement to uniform standards. The trend towards unification and harmonization of procurement legislation in the EAEU member countries requires the creation of a unified market for public procurement of the EAEU to ensure unhindered access to procurements, which will make it possible to expand sales markets under economic pressure from sanctioned non-tariff barriers. This article addresses some of the issues related to public procurement in EAEU member states in light of the functioning procurement systems. The authors make an attempt to reveal some of the main features of the public procurement system based on an analysis of the main legislative acts of the EAEU member countries. The main positive trends in harmonization of the EAEU procurement legislation are described taking into account previous experience. Ways to solve problems are proposed as a result of a comparative analysis of the legislation governing the procurement process in the EAEU member countries. The study also reveals the problems of legal regulation of the supranational level of procurement legislation that impede the effective achievement of the objectives of economic integration and the formation of a unified market for public procurement. The article is an attempt to comprehensively analyze the procurement legislation of the EAEU countries, taking into account the requirements of supranational legislation that is designed to ensure uniformity of legal models for the formation of a procurement system for state customers.

Abstract Accession of Russia and Kazakhstan to the World Trade Organization (WTO) constitutes a landmark event in the history of this organization, especially in relation to trade in energy, in general, and trade in electricity, in particular. As a result, the role of the WTO in regulating trade in electricity has increasingly grown. However, the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union, a treaty that binds both Russia and Kazakhstan, necessitates additional regulation for trade in electricity, concurrent with law of the WTO. Recently, this treaty was amended by the Protocol on Common Electricity Market on 1 July 2019. As a result, compatibility issues between the rules of the WTO and the Eurasian Economic Union arise. This article concludes that the law of the WTO can be relevant to trade in electricity between Member States of the Eurasian Economic Union and third countries because of the specific place of the rules of the WTO under the Eurasian Economic Union legal order.

This article provides a comparative analysis of the legal regulation of labor migration in regional integration organizations: the European Communities (ECs) and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). Methodologically, we argue that a synchronous comparison of the European Union (EU) in its current shape and the EAEU is rather inadequate and draw on a diachronic comparison of labor migration regulation in the EAEU and the ECs. On the one hand, we identify a number of important differences. We show, in particular, that while regulatory mechanisms in the EEC aimed at stimulating new migration flows, in the post-Soviet space mechanisms of regional migration governance provide the existing migration flows with an appropriate normative framework. We also show that in the case of the EAEU, the founding Treaty provided for a number of essential social rights for workers from EAEU Member States, whereas in the EEC these rights appeared at a much later stage. Regulation of labor migration in the EEC and the EAEU also differs in terms of distribution of competencies in this area between national and Community / Union levels. On the other hand, we also find a number of similarities, which hint at dynamics of policy learning. This is, in particular, evident in the development of mechanisms aimed at protection of migrants’ rights. This is also the case of the Agreement on pensions for workers of the EAEU member states, which seems to borrow from the EU experience opting for coordination of Member States’ retirement systems instead of their unification. Overall, some of EEC/EU ‘best practices’ have contributed to important positive developments in the regulation of intra-Union labor migration in the EAEU.

The article is focused on the study of the legal possibilities of restricting labor migration flows within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union (hereinafter – the EAEU, the Union). Taking into account the fact that the deepening of the economic integration between the EAEU’s member states (Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia) also largely depends on the efficient operation of the common labor market, it is especially relevant to ensure that legislative measures aimed at overcoming the negative consequences of the spread of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) fully correspond to the legal conditions for its development. The analysis carried out by the authors is based on a two-level system of studying the relevant legal norms – the level of international treaties and acts that constitute the law of the EAEU, and the level of national legislation of the Union member states. Although Section XXVI of the Treaty on the EAEU secures the freedom of movement of labor in the Eurasian space, the norms of this agreement, however, provide for the possibility of introducing certain restrictions on admission to the common labor market of citizens of the Union member states. In view of the fact that the relevant provisions of the EAEU law were widely tested in practice in 2020, the authors consider them through the prism of those anti-crisis and stabilization measures that have been taken by the states in connection with the threat of further spread of the new infection. At the same time, the imposed restrictions are to be examined in this work with the use of a comparative method of analysis: to what extent the regulation of the legal status of citizens of the Union member states in the territories of the host state has been changed in the national legislation of the Union countries. In the final part of the present article, the authors assess the legal compliance of the taken measures with the statutory goals of the EAEU, as well as review the current problems in the further development of an agreed and effective system for regulating migration processes, given the actions of states to prevent the spread of coronavirus infection.

The Creation

Currently the Eurasian Economic Union defines its main tasks as the creation of an image of the significant center for the development of international trade, enhancement of mutually beneficial partnership with member states and other countries, the creation of new formats for international cooperation. At the present days the Eurasian Economic Union is filled with real economic content. Multilateral projects are being implemented, primarily in key sectors of the economy, that are energy and transport. In the long run, the formation of a monetary union is possible. Development of currency integration, as a component of economic unity, presupposes the process of implementing a coordinated policy of the EAEU countries, as well as the creation and functioning of the organizations performing interstate currency regulation. In the article the dynamics of the main economic indicators of the Eurasian Economic Union functioning is considered. The data on the trade turnover of the EAEU member countries for 2019 is provided. The main directions of EAEU cooperation with third countries and integration associations are revealed, with particular attention being paid to the creation of free trade zones with Vietnam and Singapore. In the context of the organization and functioning of interstate unions, each of the member states of such unions, while ensuring their own security, also needs to manage both the threats to the security of other partners that have an indirect adverse effect and the threats that directly impact the whole union. The directions of digital transformation of the economies of the Eurasian Economic Union member states are considered. The problematic aspects of its functioning are highlighted.

The issues of an expert right of initiative when undertaking a study is very relevant to this day since there is still no proper legal regulation. The provisions of legislation on expert activities of the member States of the Eurasian Economic Union, the Model Law of the Eurasian Economic Community on forensic activities, as well as scientific positions on the nature, structure, exercise, limits and regulation of expert initiative are analyzed in the article. An opportunity to establish the expert initiative right by entitling him to submit petitions connected with appointment and production of forensic examination is examined. The author proposes to make additions to the existing legislation on forensic activities to enshrine the specific expert right to submit a range of petitions. For instance, to invite other experts to examination; to extend the term of examination; to change the wording of the issues for expertise preserving their semantic content in the decision on the appointment of an examination, to withdraw permission for a proceedings participant to attend an examination if he obstructs the work of an expert. As a possible way to reduce the time and financial costs to resolute the expert’s petitions an exemplary order of their submission in electronic form is proposed.

The relevance of the research topic is due to the fact that the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union (hereinafter – the EAEU) was aimed at increasing the economic competitiveness of the countries that joined this international association, which, in turn, should improve the living standards of the population of the member states. The active development of integrationprocesses in these countries required making appropriate changes to national legislation in order to form a homogeneous legal field and enrich their domestic law with international experience in legal regulation, including the regulation of migration processes, since integration is always accompanied by migration processes. The purpose of this article is to study and analyze the problems of legal regulation of migration processes taking place in the EAEU countries. The article deals with the problems of legal regulation of migration processes in the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The article analyzes the normative provisions of the Treaty on the EAEU that regulate migration processes on the territory of the EAEU, serve as a legal basis for solving issues of labor migration, and increase the labor status of migrants-citizens of the states that are members of the Eurasian Economic Union. It is emphasized, that the provisions of the Treaty on the EAEU establish the status of migrant citizens from the EAEU countries temporarily working on the territory of one of the member states, regulate their relations with the employer and establish at the legislative level equal rights of migrant workers with citizens of the recipient country, including the social sphere, with the exception of pension provision. Some advantages are established for migrants from the EAEU member states: it is provided not only to protect the interests of the states, but also the rights and freedoms of migrant workers and members of their families who arrived from the EAEU member States, to create favorable conditions for their life in the country that accepted them, including for performing work activities, contributing to successful integration into the social system of the country. Attention is focused on the problems associated with the implementation of the provisions of the Treaty on the EAEU, due to the significant differences between the partner states related to the level and models of economic development. It is noted that in the scientific legal literature and legislation of the EAEU countries, there are different approaches to the interpretation of the concept of “population migration”, representatives of which take as a basis certain signs of this complex socio-economic phenomenon, considering it from different sides. It is concluded that it is necessary to develop a unified approach to the legal regulation of migration processes on the territory of the EAEU and the formation of a common labor market. Proposals aimed at improving migration legislation were made: to unify the acquired social and legal status of migrants in the receiving country; to systematize and harmonize the migration legislation of the EAEU member states; to coordinate with the EAEU partners the government decisions taken in the fight against the COVID-19 coronavirus infection affecting migration processes, and others. A proposal was put forward on the need to develop and adopt a codified normative act – the Migration Code of the EAEU, which, according to the author, would eliminate the existing contradictions between the provisions on migration in the Treaty on the EAEU and the national migration legislation of the member states; unify the system of migration legislation within the framework of an integration international association, bringing it into line with international law.
