Importance The article addresses urgent issues of deepening the integration processes within the Eurasian Economic Union. Active formation of the Common Economic Space of the EEU necessitates harmonization of national laws, unified industrial policy, coordinated development of transport and transit infrastructure. Objectives The study aims to identify priorities of cooperation of the Eurasian Economic Union member States at the current stage of the Common Economic Space formation. Methods The research tools include general scientific methods, i.e. analysis and synthesis, historical, logical and systems approaches. Results The paper defines the key concerns and areas of deepening the cooperation within the Eurasian Economic Union at the modern stage of Eurasian economic integration. Conclusions and Relevance Competing with alternative integration projects in the Eurasian economic space, implemented by the European Union, the USA, China and Turkey, the EEU development implies further unification of national laws, elimination of existing and prevention of new barriers to the Common Economic Space creation, a support to single transport and transit space on the basis of harmonization of terms and conditions of transportation by all forms of transport, a coordinated strategy of export development, formation of multinationals and development institutions.
