La commission des affaires économiques suivant les questions industrielles, elle a eu l’occasion au cours des années passées de procéder à différentes auditions – notamment en 2014 et 2015 dans le cadre du rachat des activités « énergie » d’Alstom par General Electric. En mai 2014, elle a ainsi entendu les dirigeants de Siemens France et de General Electric, deux candidats à ce rachat. Nous avions ainsi organisé plusieurs auditions de votre prédécesseur, M. Patrick Kron, la dernière datant du mois d’avril 2015. Chacune d’entre elles a été accompagnée de l’audition des ministres chargés du dossier et d’une table ronde réunissant les syndicats concernés. Nous sommes dans le même schéma aujourd’hui : après l’audition de ce jour, nous entendrons le secrétaire d’État Christophe Sirugue la semaine prochaine sur ce dossier. D’ici là, un certain nombre d’annonces auront été faites, compte tenu du travail de concertation actuellement mené entre l’entreprise et le Gouvernement.

  • Republic of Kazakhstan
    Kazakhstan as a Transport Bridge between Europe and Asia Geographically advantageous location of Kazakhstan in the centre of the Eurasian continent between Europe and Asia provides the country with unique opportunity to establish efficient straight transit corridors connecting Asia and the Pacific with Europe. Transforming Kazakhstan into the largest transit country of Eurasia is a main state policy in the field of transport. State of transport infrastructure is an important factor for the economy of Kazakhstan, and it mostly impacts on effective implementation of transit opportunities of the country. In this regard, priorities in developing transport sector of Kazakhstan are to be: Integrating national transport system into Euro-Asian transport network; Harmonizing national transport legislation with international rules and standards; Facilitating investment climate. Currently, there is such a trend as sustainable growth of transport complex role in country’s economy. Substantial public investments are being allocated for its development as functional opportunities of transport infrastructure should be ahead of development pace of economy with establishment of necessary preconditions for high speed growth. 2010 has become a year of summing up the first decade of the new century. This decade was of positive progress for Kazakhstan’s transport and communication complex. So for the last 10 years 1.4 trillion tenge invested into the development of transport and communication complex. In this respect, due to high authority of the President of our country on the international scene, despite the global financial crisis loans from the international financial institutes have been involved into transport sector with total amount of $4.2 billion.

  • Ukrainian-Russian Trade and Economic Relations Under Global Integration*
    UDC 339.56(478.9:470) Ukrainian-Russian Trade and Economic Relations Under Global Integration* SERGIY PYLYPENKO** ANNOTATION. Examining Ukraine’s trade and economic cooperation with the Russian Fed- eration (RF), as they integrate their economies into the world economy, the author of this article focuses on the integrative priorities of both countries: cooperation within the framework of CIS, BSEC. SES, EU, WTO and other organizations. Moreover, the author considers the possibility of converging the actions of Ukraine and Russia within the context of their accession to the WTO or coordinating with Russia the accession of Ukraine to the WTO. In analyzing the inte- grative priorities of Ukraine and Russia, the author offers his scenarios for the development of Ukrainian-Russian relations. KEY WORDS. international economic integration (IEI), Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Single Economic Space (SES), Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC), World Trade Organization (WTO), European Union (EU), European Free Trade Association (EFTA). Introduction As dominant factors in the development of international relations at the current stage, global integrative processes also impact on the evolution of trade and economic relations between individual countries. The nature of the impact depends, first of all, on the place of one or another country in the global integrative processes as well as on the specifics of the interrelationship between them in the past and what they can be in the future. As regards Ukrainian-Russian economic relations, it can be argued with sufficient reli- ability that the impact of the first factor will be negligible, because so far these countries have a low level of integration into the world economy.
