The American Institute for the Study of War analyzed their meeting with the president of the aggressor country of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin May 25. He writes about it site ISW.
Putin, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and the President of Kazakhstan Kasym-Zhomart Tokayev called for the further development of EAEU relations with third countries. Including negotiations on free trade agreements with the UAE, India, Egypt, Indonesia, Israel and Iran.
Tokayev offered to help the Russian Federation launch the Chelyabinsk-Bolashak-Iran high-speed freight railway with a length of 2,873 km.

Analysts assume that this is how Putin wants to “rebrand” Russian products and present them as products of the Union in order to avoid Western sanctions on exports.
