Building Legal Regulation for Rail Transport in the Eurasian Economic Union

The Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union that was signed in 2014 formally established a new stage in Eurasian integration. Intensifying interstate cooperation within the EAEU involves building transport routes, including rail, and creating equal conditions and opportunities for all parties in the transportation process. These changes often entail overcoming a number of obstacles on the domestic market of the EAEU member states. How can we identify the nature of the obstacles that arise under these circumstances? Who is responsible for taking the initiative to eliminate them: the state or business? Which body has the purview to decide this issue and what is the status of its decisions? Is there legal precedent? How can the potential of piggyback transportation be used to create the most favourable conditions for the movement of goods, and what measures are needed for this from government agencies and market participants? What tools should be used to expand the range of transport services provided?
