In January 1995, the three countries of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan established a customs union. In March 1996, Kyrgyzstan officially announced that it would be joining the union, and the four-country customs union was established. It was aimed at coordinating the economic reform pace of the four member countries, as well as accelerating economic integration between them. In February 1999, Tajikistan also joined, and in 2000, the aforementioned five countries signed the treaty that transformed the customs union into the Eurasian Economic Community. On May 31, 2001, the Interstate Council of the Eurasian Economic Community held its first meeting in Minsk, the capital of Belarus, declaring the official founding of the Community.展开更多
