EU-Russia Air Transport 2010

The EU and Russia are entering presumably a new era of relations, potentially capable to improve significantly a political and economical climate. That can result in signing – in nearest future – a new Partnership and Cooperation Agreement and comprehensive package of trade partnership measures.

Regulatory authorities as well as airlines are aiming to develop EU-Russia aviation relations in-line with international norms. If they get it right this has the potential to yield huge economic benefits. Working together, the two aviation communities can generate improved market opportunities, ensure compliance with each other’s laws, promote convergence of aviation laws, and establish joint mechanisms for co-operation on security, safety and environmental standards.
