With the milestone agreement to create a Eurasian economic union
clinched in Kazakhstan on Thursday, Russia put cheap energy resources at
the head of its drive to pull former Soviet states away from European
integration and into its orbit.
The Eurasian Economic Union agreement, signed by the leaders of
Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan in the Kazakh capital of Astana, will
come into force on Jan. 1, 2015. It envisages the gradual integration of
the three former Soviet countries' economies, establishing free trade,
unbarred financial interaction and unhindered labor migration. The pact
combines the previous agreements reached between the three countries
under the Customs Union and the Single Economic Space, which were formed
in 2010 and 2011 and have been generally considered a success. |
