Let's say in the next 5 years we see Russia's Putin (or someone like Putin) being serious about creating a Eurasian Union and going out for some cold, hard talks with some of the former Soviet nations that haven't joined the EU or any other major power blocs. Let's say this Union is strictly economic.
What are the most plausible nations that are willing to join this Union?
Are the EU, US, and other countries going to fear that this Union is going to lead to a Neo-Soviet Union and another Cold War?
Is this Union going to last as long as the USSR if it were to be created?
