Medvedev congratulated the personnel, veterans and employees of the
Federal Customs Service on their professional holiday noting that
Russian customs officers should work closely with their colleagues

major new challenges associated primarily with the creation of the
Eurasian Economic Union(EEU), also known as the Eurasian Union (EAU)

trade, economic and cooperative ties, increased competitiveness of
national production and stronger positions in the global economic
system.
The republics of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan have also expressed
