Vladimir Putin (Russia), Alexander Lukashenko (Belarus)  and Nursultan Nazarbayev (Kazakhstan) are set to meet in the Kazakh capital on March 20, Kazakh President's press office has confirmed the information. The Russian and Belarusian sides have already confirmed their participation. The trilateral meeting between the three leaders, scheduled for March 13 in Kazakhstan’s capital, was postponed last week because of the ‘tight schedules’ of the three leaders. Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan are long-time economic partners and founding members of the Eurasian Economic Union, a bloc established to enable the free flow of goods, capital and labor between the member nations.
