More united Commonwealth of Independent States

As we know, the Soviet Union fell, and the post-Soviet states reorganized into the loose (largely ceremonial) organization known as the CIS. Some attempts were made to tie the commonwealth closer together, such as reorganizing the Soviet army into the CIS army...which failed. And the reorganization of the Soviet national soccer team into the CIS national soccer team...which again, failed.

What would the geopolitical changes be in a world with a more united Commonwealth of Independent States?

Isn't that what the Eurasian Economic Union is trying to work towards? A more unified CIS?

I guess that is kinda the idea, but I was thinking more to when the CIS was originally founded, like a world with the CIS as more of a confederation of post-Soviet states as opposed to the useless organization we have in OTL.
 
Russia trying not to be an ass overlord wannabe to the former USSR/Russian Empire and staying away from making the CIS its personal hegemony would help a long way. Proper economic recovery as well.
