Rus
In the current crisis many companies are encountering new challenges and obstructions in their cross-border operations on a daily basis, which means there is a growing need for fast and effective solutions. To prevent negative impacts and minimise the risk of their occurrence, it is important for business leaders to stay informed about the latest changes in trade regulation in terms of both the law itself and how it is applied.
