Splošne pripombe
General remarks
4. ugotavlja, da je Ruska federacija na splošno ustvarila pozitivno makroekonomsko okolje, kar je prispevalo k izraziti gospodarski rasti po krizi leta 1998; opozarja, da to rast v pretežni meri določa visok porast svetovnih cen energije;
Notes that the Russian Federation has created a generally positive macroeconomic environment which has contributed to impressive economic growth following the crisis in 1998; recalls that this growth has been mainly determined by the high rise in world energy prices;
6. meni, da bi moralo učinkovito in obsežno gospodarsko sodelovanje med Rusijo in EU temeljiti na načelih prostega trga, ter poziva Rusijo, naj nadaljuje z reformami trga, naj ne politizira gospodarstva ter naj spoštuje neodvisnost javnih in zasebnih institucij;
Is of the opinion that efficient and extensive economic cooperation between Russia and the EU should be based on free-market principles, and calls on Russia to continue with market reforms, to refrain from politicising the economy and to respect the independence of public and private institutions;
11. pozdravlja sporazum, ki je bil podpisan v kraju Soči med vrhom EU-Rusija 25. maja 2006 in ki poenostavlja pridobitev vizumov za ruske državljane in državljane EU ter povečuje prožnost večkratnih vstopnih postopkov za nekatere strokovnjake, kot so poslovneži, in tako pripomore k omogočanju stikov in izboljšanju trgovinskih odnosov;
Welcomes the agreement signed in Sochi, during the EU-Russia summit, on 25 May 2006, simplifying the procurement of visas for Russian and EU nationals and increasing the flexibility of the multiple entry procedures for certain professionals, such as businesspeople, thus helping to facilitate contacts and improve commercial relations;
Ureditveni okvir – okvir za sodelovanje
Regulatory framework - framework for cooperation
15. meni, da bi moral pristop k STO voditi k večjemu gospodarskemu povezovanju med EU in Rusijo v okviru skupnega gospodarskega prostora; poziva Komisijo, da po pristopu Rusije k STO premisli glede pogajanj o možnem sprejetju sporazuma o prosti trgovini;
Believes that WTO accession should lead to deeper economic integration between the EU and Russia, within the framework of the CES; calls on the Commission to consider the negotiation of a possible Free Trade Agreement (FTA) following Russia's accession to the WTO;
20. poudarja, da mora Ruska federacija izpopolniti svojo politiko glede zaščite tujih naložb v skladu z mednarodno priznanimi standardi Organizacije za gospodarsko sodelovanje in razvoj, kar bi Evropski uniji dovoljevalo, da vodi pogajanja o sklenitvi sporazumov o zaščiti in spodbujanju naložb;
Stresses the need for the Russian Federation to perfect its policy as regards the protection of foreign investment in accordance with internationally recognised OECD standards, which would permit the European Union to conduct negotiations on the conclusion of agreements on the protection and promotion of investment;
Trgovina, dostop na trg in naložbe
Trade, market access and investment
23. poudarja, da bi bilo treba ustanavljanje in delovanje podjetij spodbujati na vzajemni podlagi; ugotavlja, da je EU odprta za ruske naložbe, na kar kaže povečanje števila ruskih podjetij v EU, zlasti v energetskem in jeklarskem sektorju; zato poziva k odobritvi enakega dostopa na trg za tuja podjetja, ki delujejo v sektorjih naravnih virov v Rusiji;
Stresses that the establishment and operation of companies should be facilitated on a reciprocal basis; notes that the EU is open to investment from Russia, as is indicated by the rise in Russian businesses present in the EU, notably in the energy and steel sectors; calls, therefore, for foreign companies operating in the natural resource sectors in Russia to be granted the same degree of access;
26. priznava doseženi napredek v zvezi z odmerjanjem carinskih dajatev; poziva rusko vlado, da nadaljuje z racionalizacijo, standardizacijo in avtomatizacijo svojih carinskih postopkov ter predvidljivo, nesamovoljno in brez zadrževanja pretoka blaga odmeri carinske dajatve;

Pravice intelektualne lastnine
Intellectual Property Rights
34. izraža veliko zaskrbljenost zaradi težave, ki posebej zadeva proizvodnjo in prodajo ponarejenih proizvodov, zlasti farmacevtskih izdelkov, saj to ne ogroža le zakonitih proizvajalcev, ampak tudi javno zdravje;
Is deeply concerned about the problem relating specifically to the production and sale of counterfeit products, in particular pharmaceutical products, as this not only undermines legitimate producers, but also presents a danger to public health;
36. ponovno poudarja potrebo po usklajeni evropski energetski politiki; poudarja, da bi morali dvostranski sporazumi med državami članicami EU in Rusijo, če je to nujno potrebno, pomagati pri zasledovanju splošnih interesov EU na področju energetske varnosti;
Reiterates the need for a coherent European energy policy; stresses that bilateral agreements between EU Member States and Russia should, if absolutely necessary, help in the pursuit of the EU’s overall energy security interests;
40. pozdravlja dejstvo, da je Ruska federacija oktobra 2004 ratificirala kjotski protokol; poziva EU in Rusko federacijo k tesnemu sodelovanju za spodbuditev tehničnih inovacij in izboljšanje učinkovitosti v energetskem sektorju ter k skupnemu razmisleku o prihodnjih strategijah za zmanjšanje emisij toplogrednih plinov za obdobje po poteku veljavnosti protokola leta 2012;
Welcomes the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol by the Russian Federation in October 2004; calls on the EU and the Russian Federation to cooperate closely with a view to promoting technical innovation and improving efficiency in the energy sector, and to consider jointly future strategies to achieve reductions in greenhouse gas emissions for the period following the expiry of the Protocol in 2012;
44. priznava, da se veliko denarja vlaga v vzdrževanje infrastrukture za prodajno distribucijo in oskrbovalnih linij; vendar poudarja, da bi pomanjkanje naložb, vključno s tujimi naložbami, po mnenju strokovnjakov že leta 2010 lahko privedlo do pomanjkanja plina;
Acknowledges that a significant amount of money is being invested in the maintenance of downstream distribution infrastructure and pipelines; emphasises, nonetheless, that, according to experts, a lack of investment, including foreign investment, may lead to a shortage of gas by as early as 2010;
48. ponovno izraža podporo odprtju trga EU za izvoz ruske elektrike pod pogojem, da se ruski varnostni standardi, zlasti za jedrske elektrarne ter za varno ravnanje z jedrskimi odpadki in njihovo odlaganje, dvignejo na raven EU, da se prepreči nevarnost okoljskega dampinga;
Reiterates its support for the opening of the EU market to Russian electricity exports, on condition that relevant Russian safety standards, in particular in relation to nuclear power plants and the safe processing and disposal of nuclear waste, are brought up to EU level, so that the risk of environmental dumping is averted;
Drugi posebni sektorji
Other specific sectors
53. meni, da bodo te reforme podpirale naložbeno ozračje in da lahko pomembno vplivajo na omogočanje trajne gospodarske rasti v Rusiji na način, ki bo manj odvisen od izvoza energije in njene cene;
Considers that those reforms will favour an investment climate and can play a major role in enabling continued economic growth in Russia in a way that is less dependent on energy exports and the price of energy;
56. poziva Rusijo, naj ne uvede omejevalnih ukrepov glede zdravja živali in rastlin za uvožene proizvode, ki bi bili diskriminatorni ali bi temeljili na višji ravni zahtev, kot veljajo za domače proizvode;
Calls on Russia not to impose restrictive animal or plant health measures on imported products which are discriminatory or based on a higher level of requirements than those applicable to domestic products;
59. prav tako priznava potencialno pozitivni prispevek, do katerega bi lahko prišlo s krepitvijo širšega medregionalnega sodelovanja med EU in Organizacijo za črnomorsko gospodarsko sodelovanje (BSEC) v okviru novega pristopa sinergije Črnega morja;
Also recognises the potentially positive contribution that could be made by reinforcing the wider inter-regional cooperation between the EU and the Organisation of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) in the context of the new ‘Black Sea Synergy’ approach;
61. poudarja koristi, ki bi jih tesnejši odnosi med EU in Rusijo prinesli sektorju turizma, saj številne regije držav članic veljajo za tradicionalne cilje potovanj ruskih obiskovalcev;
Stresses the benefits that closer EU-Russian relations in the tourism sector would entail, as many regions of the Member States are considered traditional destinations for Russian visitors;
64. 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 gospodarskih posledic, prednostna naloga za nadaljnje spodbujanje gospodarskega razvoja in blaginje v državah skupne soseščine;
Believes that the existence of frozen conflicts in the common neighbourhood represents a significant 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;
Odnosi med EU in Rusijo so na pomembnem razpotju.
The relations between the EU and Russia are at an important juncture.
Po obdobju gospodarske stagnacije v zadnjih letih Sovjetske zveze in globoke recesije v devetdesetih letih 20. stoletja se rusko gospodarstvo od leta 1999 srečuje z velikimi stopnjami rasti.
After a period of economic stagnation during the final years of the Soviet Union and a deep recession during the 1990s, Russia’s economy has experienced strong growth rates since 1999.
Ruski BDP se je med leti 1999 in 2005 v povprečju povečal za 6,7 % na leto; leta 2006 se je povečal za 6,5 %.
On average, Russia’s GDP increased by 6.7% per annum between 1999 and 2005; in 2006, Russia's GDP grew by 6.5%.
Energetika je gonilo ruske gospodarske uspešnosti.
Energy is at the heart of Russia’s economic performance.
Rusija nadzoruje več kot 20 % svetovnih plinskih rezerv in 5 % dokazanih naftnih rezerv.
Russia controls more than 20% of the world’s known gas reserves and 5% of proven oil reserves.
Trenutno tekmuje s Saudsko Arabijo, ki je največja proizvajalka in izvoznica nafte na svetu ter nesporni vodja na področju proizvodnje in izvoza plina.
It currently rivals Saudi Arabia as the world’s largest producer and exporter of oil; and it is the indisputable leader in gas production and exports.
Rusija ima velike koristi zaradi visokih cen teh surovin na svetovnem trgu.
Russia has benefited tremendously from soaring prices of those commodities on the world market.
Leta 2005 sta nafta in plin predstavljala 63 % ruskega izvoza in 37 % državnih proračunskih prihodkov.
In 2005, oil and gas accounted for 63% of Russian exports and represented 37% of state budget revenues.
Zaradi nove gospodarske moči je Rusija pridobila samozavest in razvila močan občutek neodvisnosti.
Due to its new economic strength, Russia has gained self-confidence and developed a strong sense of independence.
Postala je tudi zelo občutljiva na tuje kritike njene domače politike.
As a consequence, it has become increasingly sensitive to outside criticism of its domestic politics.
Hkrati so nekateri opazovalci ugotovili, da se je izvajanje reform v Rusiji upočasnilo.
At the same time, some observers have noted that the speed of Russian reform efforts has been slowing down of late.
Poleg tega vlada vse bolj posega v rusko gospodarstvo.
Moreover, the government is increasingly interfering in the Russian economy.
Čeprav je Rusija desetletja slovela kot zanesljiv dobavitelj nafte in plina, je bil v zadnjih mesecih ta sloves okrnjen.
What is more, although Russia has enjoyed the reputation of a reliable supplier of oil and gas for decades, this image has been tainted over the last months.
Na začetku leta 2006 je Rusija zaradi spora glede cen za nekaj časa ustavila dobavo plina Ukrajini, kar je vplivalo tudi na nekatere države članice EU.
At the beginning of 2006, Russia briefly cut the gas supply to Ukraine, in a dispute over prices, which also affected some EU member states.
Novembra 2006 so se razširile govorice, da bo Rusija morda ustanovila globalni plinski kartel z Alžirijo, Katarjem, Libijo, državami centralne Azije in morda Iranom, da bi povečala svojo moč v političnem dialogu z EU.
In November 2006, rumour spread that Russia may be seeking to create a global gas cartel including Algeria, Qatar, Libya, the countries of Central Asia, and perhaps Iran, to strengthen its leverage in political dealings with the EU.
Januarja 2007 je ruski spor z Belorusijo glede cen nafte in tranzitnih dajatev povzročil začasno ustavitev dobave ruske nafte v nekatere države članice EU.
In January 2007, Russia’s conflict with Belarus over oil pricing and transit fees has led to a temporary disruption of Russian oil supply to some EU member states.
Države članice EU so se pri oblikovanju skupnega odziva na ta nov položaj srečevale s težavami, še zlasti zato, ker je Rusija začela sklepati dvostranske sporazume z nekaterimi državami članicami EU.
Finding a common response to this new situation has proven difficult for the EU member states, all the more since Russia has started to engage a number of EU member states on the bilateral level.
Decembra 2007 bo prenehal veljati Sporazum o partnerstvu in sodelovanju, ki je veljal deset let, bliža pa se tudi pristop Rusije k STO.
In December 2007, the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) is coming to an end of its initial 10-year period, and Russia’s WTO accession is coming closer.
To ponuja edinstveno priložnost za oblikovanje novih temeljev za odnose med EU in Rusijo ter spodbujanje tesnejše povezave med gospodarstvoma v skupno korist.
This affords a unique opportunity to provide new foundations for EU-Russia relations and forge closer ties between the two economies to their mutual benefit.
Gospodarska soodvisnost
Economic Interdependence
Kljub zapletenim celotnim odnosom med EU in Rusijo so splošni pogoji za okrepitev gospodarskih vezi med Rusijo in EU ugodni.
Despite the complex overall relations between the EU and Russia, the general conditions for strengthening economic ties between Russia and the EU are favourable.
EU in Rusija nedvomno potrebujeta druga drugo.
There is no doubt that the EU and Russia need each other.
Blagovna menjava med Rusijo in EU se je v zadnjih petih letih povečala za več kot 70 %.
Trade between Russia and the EU has grown by more than 70% over the last five years.
Leta 2005 je znašala več kot 163 milijarde EUR.
In 2005 it amounted to more than €163 billion.
Gospodarski strukturi EU in Rusije se zelo dopolnjujeta.
The economic structures of the EU and Russia are highly complementary.
EU je najpomembnejši ruski trgovinski partner, ki predstavlja 52,9 % njenega uvoza in izvoza.
The EU is easily Russia’s most important trading partner, accounting for 52.9% of its exports and imports.
EU je najpomembnejša uvozna regija ruske nafte in plina.
The EU is the most important destination of Russia’s oil and gas exports.
63 % ruskega izvoza nafte in 62 % ruskega zemeljskega plina je namenjenih v EU.
63% of Russia’s oil exports and 62% of Russia’s natural gas exports go to the EU.
Ker je gospodarska blaginja Rusije v veliki meri odvisna od izvoza energetskih virov, ima država velik interes za stabilne odnose z EU.
Since Russia's economic well-being depends to a large extent on its energy exports, it has a strong interest in stable relations with the EU.
Poleg tega mora EU ohranjati dobre odnose z Rusijo, ker je zelo odvisna od uvoza energetskih virov, saj je Rusija največji samostojni dobavitelj nafte in plina za EU.
Likewise, the EU needs to maintain good relations with Russia, since it is highly dependent on energy imports, and Russia is the EU’s single biggest oil and gas supplier.
30 % uvoza nafte EU (ki predstavlja 27 % celotne porabe nafte v EU) in 50 % uvoza plina (ki predstavlja 25 % celotne porabe plina v EU) prihaja iz Rusije.
30% of the EU’s oil imports (representing 27% of total EU oil consumption) and 50% of its gas imports (representing 25% of gas consumption) come from Russia.
Odvisnost EU od uvoza energetskih virov bo do leta 2030 predvidoma dosegla 70 %, delež Rusije pa bo ostal velik.
The EU's dependence on energy imports is estimated to grow to about 70% by 2030, and Russia's share is expected to remain high.
Tuje naložbe
Foreign Investment
Poleg tega mora Rusija privabiti več neposrednih tujih naložb, da bo ohranila in povečala stopnje rasti proizvodnje v energetskem sektorju.
What is more, Russia needs to attract more Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) to maintain and increase production growth rates across its energy sector.
Rusija je že sprejela nekaj ukrepov za izboljšanje svoje privlačnosti za tuje vlagatelje s spremembo splošne zakonodaje na področju neposrednih tujih naložb, racionalizacijo davčne uprave, sprejetjem načel upravljanja podjetij OECD, reformo zemljiškega prava, carinskega zakonika in ureditve deviznega poslovanja ter odpravo deviznega nadzora rublja.
Russia has already taken some measures to improve its attractiveness to foreign investors by changing general FDI legislation, streamlining its tax administration, adopting the OECD’s Principles of Corporate Governance, reforming land law, its customs code and foreign exchange regulation, and removing exchange controls on the rouble.
To je prispevalo k znatnemu povečanju tokov neposrednih tujih naložb v zadnjih letih kljub upadu leta 2005.
This has contributed to a considerable acceleration of FDI flows over the past years, despite a small dent in 2005.
Leta 2006 so znašale 22,5 milijard EUR.
In 2006, they amounted to an estimated €22.5 billion.
EU je najpomembnejši vir priliva neposrednih tujih naložb v Rusiji.
The EU is the most important source of FDI inflows to Russia.
Predstavlja okoli 70 % vseh tujih naložb v Rusiji.
It accounts for about 70% of all accumulated foreign investment in Russia.
Neposredne tuje naložbe EU v Rusiji so se med leti 2002 (2,5 milijarde EUR) in 2004 (6,4 milijarde EUR) več kot podvojile.
The EU's Direct Investment in Russia has more than doubled between 2002 (€2.5 billion) and 2004 (€6.4 billion).
Kljub temu Rusija še vedno privablja razmeroma malo neposrednih tujih naložb v primerjavi z drugimi razvijajočimi se gospodarstvi glede na velikost njenega gospodarstva in stopnjo razvoja.
Nevertheless, Russia still attracts relatively little FDI compared to other emerging economies relative to the size of its economy and level of development.
Poleg tega ves priliv naložb do zdaj najverjetneje izvira iz ruskih sredstev v tujini, ki se ponovno investirajo v Rusiji, in ne od tujih vlagateljev, ki bi v rusko gospodarstvo prinesli nov kapital.
Moreover, much of the investment inflows recorded so far probably stem from Russian-owned assets held offshore and reinvested in Russia, rather than from foreign investors bringing fresh capital into the Russian economy.
Rusija potrebuje velike tuje naložbe, da bo lahko razvila svoj energetski sektor.
Yet Russia needs large sums foreign investment to develop its energy sector.
