On Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, Belarussian President Alexander Lukashenko, Kyrgyz President Askar Akayev and Tajik President Emomali Rakhmonov signed a treaty on creating the Eurasian Economic Community in Kazakhstan capital Astana.
Eurasian Economic Community is a new international economic organization built on the basis of the Customs Union. The presidents signed a statement and a treaty on the creation of the organization that regulate the structures and activity of the bodies controlling the integration, both those that now exist and those being created.
