It comes from the idea of Nazarbayev about the establishment of economic alliance, to obtain stability in Eurasia. The idea was supported by Putin, who called for the institution of an union to achieve economic prosperity against the globalization. Nazarbayev and Lukashenka do not see any politic involvement of the EEU, while Putin sees it as instrument to relive the Russian hegemony in the region. However, the EEU wants to create a solid mutual-trade, guaranteeing the four fundamental freedoms.
