"We need to build a modern competitive national economic model based on knowledge, innovations and state of the art technology. Russia is called on to strengthen its leadership in the processes of integration underway in Eurasia and to occupy a worthy place in the global division of labour. Most importantly, we need new living standards for Russian citizens, rising personal incomes, guaranteed access to education and healthcare services and expanded housing construction."

“Establishing a customs union and, subsequently, a common economic space for Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan is a conscious and principled decision. We will strive for a reasoned integration that is as close as possible. This will include not only a unified customs territory, but common capital and labour markets, a unified transport system and much, much more. I am convinced that a common economic space will spur economic development in Russia in a significant way.”
