Another important disadvantage

is the threat of a decrease in the competitiveness of Kazakh goods in relation to Belarusian and Russian ones. Such an increase in competition can be considered from two opposite aspects. I agree that in some markets it will become more difficult for Kazakh entrepreneurs to work, but on the other hand, the increase in competition will force Kazakh entrepreneurs to improve their business processes. As the history of the economy shows, competition has more advantages than disadvantages and is the driving force of progress. First of all, consumers benefit from competition.

It should also be taken into account that the Kazakhstan market ukraine cell phone number list is not so capacious that Russian manufacturers would rush to it in orderly rows. We are of interest to Russian partners, first of all, as consumers of industrial goods (machinery, equipment, consumables for mining, oil and gas, agriculture and other industries) and as a major supplier of raw materials. This is also evident from the structure of imports and exports with Russia and Belarus.

The rise in prices is another negative that is being actively discussed in the press. It is based on two main trends: the rise in prices for goods from third countries due to the increase in customs tariffs; the second trend is speculation on lower prices in Kazakhstan compared to Russia. Regarding the first trend, the average tariff for the republic has increased by 4.4%. This is not a critical increase in the customs tariff and it is impossible to talk about a large-scale increase in domestic prices because of this.
