  • Abstract

      While the world is concerned about the consequences of the Brexit and the future of the European Union, an international organization with similar goals is struggling to overcome external and internal problems. The Eurasian Economic Union of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia aims to shore up the economies of its member states and improve the lives of their populations. However, it faces external sanctions, low prices on hydrocarbons, political crises of its members, and devaluation of the member states’ national currencies in relation to the US dollar. The authors assess the Eurasian Economic Union’s prospects.
