An Appearance of Dual Attachment in the Soviet Union’s Imports: Variations in Imports from the West in relation to Imports from CMEA Countries
Chapter
Abstract
Annual variations in Soviet imports from the West are caused partly by changes in supply. World market prices fluctuate. The activity of Western firms on the Soviet market varies with economic development in the West. The trade policy of capitalist countries offers sometimes more, sometimes less free scope for exports to the Soviet Union. The availability of Western capital and the terms of financing exports to the Soviet Union also vary.
