description The article analyzes the five-year period for the implementation of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and highlights the main problems of its development at the present stage. Among them there are external pressure on the EAEU from major economic agents (China) and regional economic partnerships (European Union), which leads to erosion of the Eurasian integration processes. The interaction of the EAEU partners has a negative impact on the strengthening of Western sanctions against Russia. Domestic disintegration factors are the low share of mutual trade and investment, the lack of tangible progress in the formation of common sectoral markets, the rapid growth of new non-tariff barriers and exceptions to the general rules of trade, the growth in the number of trade and currency conflicts.
