The paper analyses Czechoslovakia’s foreign trade relations in the 1970s. Based on archival and research and scholarly literature, it builds a three tiered system that consists of satisfying consumption, covering the CMEA, and Western markets exports, and it offers qualitative economic analysis. The author is interested in the problem of subsidization of Eastern Europe by the Soviet Union. He comes to the conclusion that the movement in Czechoslovak foreign trade policy toward closer cooperation with CMEA partners, most prominently the Soviet Union, was a logical outcome of external developments taking place in the world economy (the 1973 oil shock, emergence of the Asian tigers, etc.) as well as of the internal parameters of the Czechoslovak economy.
