The Russia-led Eurasian Economic Union has huge potential to expand and is open to cooperation with partners in the East and West, President Vladimir Putin said at the EEU summit in Moscow.
“The increase in the number of members is beneficial to the union itself. It boosts its market capacity and contributes to the strengthening of trade and economic ties, and to the launching of new investment projects,” Putin said at this week’s session of the EEU’s Supreme Council.

The population of the union is about 171 million people and its gross domestic product is expected to reach $3 trillion next year.

This demands a coordinated and joint response that would defend all of our countries and the region as a whole from terrorism, drug trafficking, cross-border crime, and also prevent natural and man-made disasters,” Putin said.
After both summits Vladimir Putin invited the other leaders to visit Russia’s newest defense facility – the major complex meant to monitor threats to national security in peacetime, but capable of taking control of the entire country in case of war. The presidents of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan arrived to the defense center together.
