Rast proizvodnje nafte v Rusiji se je med letoma 2004 in 2005 znatno zmanjšala, stagnira pa tudi proizvodnja plina.
Oil output growth in Russia has dropped sharply in 2004 and 2005; and Russia's gas output has also been stagnating.
Za ohranjanje in povečanje stopenj rasti proizvodnje v ruskem energetskem sektorju ter zagotavljanje, da bo še naprej spodbujal rusko gospodarstvo, je treba odkriti in razviti nova področja ter zagotoviti novo tehnologijo in infrastrukturo.
To maintain and increase production growth rates across the Russian energy sector -- and in order to ensure that it continues to boost the Russian economy -- new fields need to be discovered, developed, and supplied with new technology and infrastructure.
EU lahko ponudi kapital in nove tehnologije, vključno za obnovljive vire energije, za proizvodnjo energije, porabo in energetsko učinkovitost (Rusija porabi 3 do 4-krat več energije na enoto BDP kot druge države v podobnem položaju).
The EU can offer capital and new technology – including renewable – for energy production, consumption, and efficiency (Russia consumes 3-4 times more energy per unit of GDP than other countries of similar climate).
Vendar podjetja iz EU ne želijo vlagati zaradi stalnega poseganja države v energetski sektor, visoke stopnje korupcije v javni upravi, nepreglednega in neučinkovitega pravosodnega sistema in slabo urejenih premoženjskih pravic.
But EU companies are hesitant to make the necessary investments, due to a perception of increasing state interference in the energy sector, high levels of corruption in public administration, an opaque and inefficient judicial system, and weak property rights.
Poleg tega je Rusija velik trg za blago in storitve EU z velikim potencialom za rast, kar se je nedavno pokazalo z znatnim povečanjem domače porabe.
Moreover, as indicated by the recent boom in domestic consumption, Russia is a large market for EU goods and services, with considerable potential for growth.
Zato je v skupnem interesu Rusije in EU, da okrepita svoj gospodarski odnos.
For these reasons, it is in the mutual interest of both Russia and the EU to deepen their economic relationship.
Pristop Rusije k STO
Russia ’s Accession to the WTO
Pristop Rusije k STO je pomemben korak v to smer.
Russia's WTO accession is an important step in this direction.
Pogajanja o tem so dosegla končno stopnjo.
The respective negotiations have now reached their final stage.
Dvostranski sporazum o dostopu na trg trga je bil z EU sklenjen 21. marca 2004, z ZDA pa 19. novembra 2006.
Bilateral Market Access Agreements were concluded with the EU on 21 March 2004 and with the U.S. on 19 November 2006.
Rusija mora še vedno potrditi prejšnji sporazum z Gruzijo in skleniti sporazume s Kambodžo, Vietnamom in morda s Savdsko Arabijo.
Russia still needs to confirm its previous agreement with Georgia and reach agreements with Cambodia, Vietnam, and possibly Saudi Arabia.
Čeprav bo celotni vpliv pristopa k STO na Rusijo odvisen od pogojev pristopa, o katerih se bodo dogovorile Rusija in njeni trgovinski partnerji v STO, bo Rusija najverjetneje morala zmanjšati tarife in odpraviti druge zaščitne ukrepe za industrije, ki so občutljive na uvoz, kot sta avtomobilska in letalska industrija, za tujo konkurenco pa bo morala odpreti ključne sektorje finančnih storitev, kot sta bančništvo in zavarovanje.
Although the overall impact of WTO accession on Russia will depend on the terms and conditions of accession that Russia and its trading partners in the WTO finally agree on, Russia will likely have to reduce tariffs and other protective measures for import-sensitive industries such as autos and aircraft and will have to open up key financial service industries – banking and insurance – to foreign competition.
To bo podjetjem iz EU ponudilo nove priložnosti.
This opens up opportunities for EU businesses.
V Rusiji bi takšne spremembe lahko povzročile izgubo delovnih mest na teh področjih in potrebo, da ruska vlada kratkoročno zagotovi zavarovanja v primeru brezposelnosti ter drugo pomoč za prilagoditev.
In Russia, such adjustments could lead to the loss of jobs in those areas and the need for the Russian government to provide unemployment insurance and other adjustment assistance in the short run.
Dolgoročno pa gospodarska teorija in izkušnje gospodarstev, ki so se soočala s podobnim prehodom, kažejo, da bo liberalizacija trgovine vodila k učinkovitejšemu ruskemu gospodarstvu in zvišanju življenjskega standarda povprečnega ruskega državljana.
In the long run, however, economic theory and the record of economies that have gone through similar transitions suggest that trade liberalization will lead to a more efficient Russian economy and to raising the living standards of the average Russian citizen.
Poleg tega bi Rusija s pristopom k STO prepričala morebitne ruske in tuje vlagatelje, da se bo vključila v globalno gospodarstvo na podlagi stabilnega in predvidljivega okvira.
Moreover, by joining the WTO, Russia would reassure potential investors, at home and abroad, that it is determined to integrate into the global economy on the basis of a stable, predictable framework.
Tako bo Rusija postala varnejša za naložbe ruskih podjetij in tudi podjetij iz EU.
Thus it will make Russia a safer place to invest in, for Russian and EU companies alike.
STO hkrati zagotavlja večstranski forum za Rusijo, da zgladi trgovinske spore z drugimi članicami STO.
At the same time, the WTO provides a multilateral forum for Russia to settle trade disputes with other WTO members.
Kot članica STO bo Rusija imela besedo pri odločanju, kako se bodo ta pravila oblikovala in izvajala.
As a WTO member, Russia will have a voice in how those rules are made and implemented.
Zato mora EU vztrajati na sklenitvi pomembnih sporazumov.
For these reasons, the EU should push for the conclusion of the outstanding agreements.
Razvoj ureditvenega okvira
Developing the Regulatory Framework
EU in Rusija se morata tudi usmeriti k izvajanju načrta štirih skupnih gospodarskih prostorov ter takoj ko bo mogoče začeti pogajanja o novem sporazumu o partnerstvu in sodelovanju.
The EU and Russia should also focus on the implementation of the Road Maps of the Four Common Spaces and start negotiations on a new Partnership and Cooperation Agreement as soon as possible.
Odnosi na področju energetike morajo biti v središču novega sporazum o partnerstvu in sodelovanju z Rusijo.
Energy relations should be placed at the core of a new PCA with Russia.
Čeprav Rusija zavrača podpis Pogodbe o energetski listini, je predsednik Vladimir Putin oktobra 2006 na vrhu v Lahtiju dejal, da Rusija ne zavrača njenih načel.
Although Russia refuses to ratify the Energy Charter Treaty, President Vladimir Putin has indicated on the Lahti Summit in October 2006 that Russia does not reject its principles.
V splošnem mora nov sporazum o partnerstvu in sodelovanju okrepiti pravno državo na področju energetike z oblikovanjem enakih konkurenčnih pogojev, ki jih morajo upoštevati vse udeležene vlade, s čimer se bo zmanjšalo tveganje, povezano s trgovino in naložbami.
In general, the new PCA should strengthen the rule of law on energy issues by creating a level playing field of rules to be observed by all participating governments, thus minimizing the risks associated with trade and investment.
Sporazum o prosti trgovini
Free Trade Agreement
Razen tega morata EU in Rusija poleg okrepitve gospodarskih odnosov, ko bo Rusija pristopila k STO, nadaljevati tudi informativna pogajanja o možnem sporazumu o prosti trgovini, ki so se začela na vrhu EU-Rusija v kraju Soči maja 2006.
Moreover, with a view of taking economic relations forward once Russia has joined the WTO, the EU and Russia should also continue the exploratory talks on a possible Free Trade Agreement (FTA), which have been initiated at the EU-Russia Summit in Sochi in May 2006.
Poglobljen in izčrpen sporazum o prosti trgovini bi spodbudil razširjenost trgovinskih in naložbenih odnosov med EU in Rusijo, ki so sedaj preozko usmerjeni v energetski sektor.
A deep and comprehensive FTA would promote the diversification of trade and investment relations between the EU and Russia, which currently are too narrowly focused on the energy sector.
Hkrati bi sporazum o prosti trgovini ponudil priložnost za okrepitev partnerstva med EU in Rusijo na področju trgovanja z energijo in naložb vanjo v okviru skupnega interesa.
At the same time, the FTA would provide an opportunity to establish a stronger EU-Russian partnership in energy trade and investment based on mutual interest.
3. podpira nadaljevanje in krepitev posvetovanj EU z Rusijo o človekovih pravicah ter poziva, naj se v ta proces vključijo Evropski parlament, pa tudi evropske in Ruske nevladne organizacije; meni, da bi moral biti položaj človekovih pravic v Rusiji, zlasti kar zadeva svobodo govora in neodvisnost medijev, zakonodajo o dejavnostih nevladnih organizacij in obravnavanje zagovornikov človekovih pravic ter rasizem in ksenofobijo, sestavni del političnega dnevnega reda med EU in Rusijo;
Supports the continuation and enhancement of the EU's human rights consultations with Russia and calls for the involvement of the European Parliament as well as European and Russian NGOs in this process; considers that the human rights situation in Russia, in particular as regards freedom of speech and the independence of the media, the legislation on NGO activity and the treatment of human rights defenders, racism and xenophobia, should be an integral part of the EU-Russia political agenda;
5. poudarja pomen sklenitve pogajanj med Svetovno trgovinsko organizacijo in Rusijo; izraža zadovoljstvo glede sklenjenega dvostranskega sporazuma med EU in Rusijo, vendar poudarja, da je treba natančno slediti skupno dogovorjenemu okviru; s tem v zvezi poudarja, da diskriminacijske tržne politike, kot je dvojno obdavčenje, niso v skladu z načeli, na katerih temeljijo trgovinski odnosi med EU in Rusijo; izraža zaskrbljenost, da evropske naložbe v Rusiji ne uživajo enake ravni pravnega varstva in dostopa do trga, kot sta omogočena ruskim vlagateljem v EU, še najmanj v tako imenovanih strateških sektorjih ruskega gospodarstva;
Underlines the importance of concluding the WTO–Russia negotiations; expresses its appreciation regarding the bilateral EU–Russia agreement that has been concluded, but stresses the need to carefully follow the jointly agreed framework; emphasises in this respect that discriminatory trade policies, such as double tariffs, are not in line with the principles on which EU-Russia trade relations are based; expresses concern that European investments in Russia do not enjoy the same level of legal protection and market access as is afforded to Russian investors in the EU, not least in the so-called strategic sectors of the Russian economy;
7. je zaskrbljen, da utegne praksa politično obarvanih sodnih procesov, kot sta primera Mihaila Hodorkovskega in Platona Lebedeva, zmanjša zaupanje v pravno državo, izkrivi tržno gospodarstvo v Rusiji in ovira njene gospodarske odnose z EU;
Is concerned that the practice of holding politicised trials, as in the cases of Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Platon Lebedev, can reduce confidence in the rule of law, distort the market economy in Russia and impede its economic relations with the EU;

10. meni, da so zamrznjeni spori v skupni soseščini velika ovira za gospodarski razvoj te regije in da bi morala biti podpora reševanju teh sporov v skladu z načeli mednarodnega prava – vključno z obravnavo nastajajočih gospodarskih posledic – prednostna naloga za nadaljnje spodbujanje gospodarskega razvoja in blaginje v državah v skupni soseščini;
Believes that the existence of frozen conflicts in the common neighbourhood is an important impediment to economic development in this region, and that supporting their settlement in line with the principles of international law, including through addressing the economic consequences, should constitute a priority for the purposes of further promoting economic development and prosperity in the countries of the common neighbourhood;
13. meni, da Svet, Komisija in države članice ne bi smeli krepiti trgovinskih odnosov z Rusijo na račun držav, ki mejijo z njo, da bi se tako izognili razmeram, v katerih oblasti v Moskvi uporabljajo trgovinske odnose z EU kot izgovor za kaznovanje ali kot alternativo trgovanju s tradicionalnimi trgi držav, s katerimi so se pojavile politične napetosti, kot v primeru prepovedi uvoza kmetijskih izdelkov iz Poljske ter vina iz Moldavije in Gruzije;
Considers that the Council, the Commission and the Member States should not enhance trade relations with Russia at the expense of the countries bordering Russia, in order to avoid situations in which the Moscow authorities use trade relations with the EU as a pretext for punishing, or as an alternative to trading with the traditional markets of, countries with which political strains have arisen, as in the case of the ban on imports of agricultural products from Poland and wine from Moldova and Georgia;
16. poziva oblasti Ruske federacije, naj izvajajo vse potrebne ukrepe za zagotavljanje energetske oskrbe EU in še posebej, naj obnovijo dobavo surove nafte rafineriji Mažeikių v Litvi, ki je bila prekinjena 3. avgusta 2006;

Stresses the need to use all forms of contact with the Russian Federation to encourage the Russian authorities to ensure genuine protection for human rights, with particular reference to freedom of movement, free elections, freedom of expression and respect for the rights of national minorities, especially the rights of Georgians and Chechens, which at present are constantly violated;
20. opozarja, da bi morala EU in Rusija delovati skupaj v smeri doseganja večstranskih rešitev svetovnih vprašanj; pozdravlja konstruktiven pristop Rusije v šeststranskih pogovorih s Severno Korejo; poziva Rusijo, naj pokaže podoben konstruktiven odnos pri iskanju trajnostne rešitve v zvezi s končnim statusom Kosova v skladu s stališčem Združenih narodov; obsoja rusko prodajo vojaške opreme Iranu in nepripravljenost Rusije, da bi prekinila dobavo ruskega orožja in vojaškega znanja Iranu.
Recalls that the EU and Russia should work together towards arriving at multilateral solutions to global issues; welcomes the constructive approach taken by Russia in the six-nation talks with North Korea; calls on Russia to show a similar constructive attitude to finding a sustainable solution regarding the final status of Kosovo, in accordance with the position of the United Nations); condemns Russian military sales to Iran and Russia's unwillingness to stop supplying Iran with Russian arms and military know-how.

on economic and trade relations between the EU and Russia
A. ker so razpad ZSSR, neodvisnost številnih bivših republik sovjetskega imperija in razkroj starega komunističnega bloka popolnoma spremenili politično geografijo Evrope in Azije in ker bo, kot pravi Umberto Eco, „potrebnih še nekaj desetletij, da bo sesutje sovjetskega sistema povsem zaključeno“,
