Russia should possibly strengthen the position of the country-exporter of coal on the world coal market, as in the last ten - fifteen years there has been a sharp increase in the role of developing countries in world production (China, India, Indonesia, Venezuela and Colombia) and developed - South Africa and Australia (Lunev, 2007)
