Municipal Administrative Units of Kaliningrad Oblast

Kaliningrad oblast with its unique geo-political location is often called
as "the Western Russian enclave" and Special Economic Zone. This tiny
territory on the Southern coast between Poland and Lithuania attracts
stable political and economical interest of Russian and foreign investors.
The oblast is the most western territory of Russia, which is totally
separated from the rest of the country by the land boarders of foreign
countries and the international marine belt. Thus the proximity to European
business centers and long term experience of development as one of the
industrial centers of Northwest Russia had an impact on the Kaliningrad
oblast making it the first to integrate into European economy.
