Regional integration in the post-Soviet space is set to continue with the launch of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) on January 1, 2015. The initial EEU members will be Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Russia, with Armenia planning to join January 2, 2015, at the earliest, and Kyrgyzstan to follow some time later. No immediate changes affecting trade in agricultural goods with Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Russia are expected with the entry into force of the EEU Treaty on January 1, 2015, while Armenia and Kyrgyzstan may require a period of adjustment to ensure EEU regulatory conformity.
