          "The UAE–Eurasian Economic Union Economic Partnership Agreement took effect on 6 October 2026, establishing a preferential framework with Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia. It covers more than 86% of tariff lines, representing about 96% of the value of goods traded between the sides. WAM reported non-oil trade of US$33.6 billion in 2025, up 16% from US$29 billion in 2024; first-half 2026 trade was US$14.3 billion, up 6.2% year on year. The agreement is expected to support trade nearing US$50 billion by 2032, a forecast rather than a current result."
