Abstract
On 12 March 2014, the OECD suspended the process of Russia’s accession to that international organization. The long history of Russia’s cooperation with the OECD testifies to the importance of interplay between Russia and that organization, initially in the form of scientific expert academic support to the procedure of introduction, in Russia, of the OECD’s internationally recognized standards for the purpose of developing a number of institutions of the Russian economy, primarily in the field of taxation, anti-monopoly policy and public policy towards corporations; and then, from May 2007 onwards, in the form of officially established accession process launched by the OECD Council’s decision that Russia should be invited to become a full member of the OECD.
