Ratification procedures for the free trade deal between the Eurasian Economic Union and Indonesia are underway, according to a senior Eurasian Economic Commission official.
A free trade agreement between the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and Indonesia is expected to enter into force by the end of the year, according to Bakytzhan Sagintayev, a member of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), as reported by TASS.
