Russian President Vladimir Putin has arrived in Astana, Kazakhtan, where he will hold talks on Tuesday with Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, according to TASS.

He also will take part in a session of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council at the level of the heads of state.

The heads of the Eurasian Economic Union member countries will "discuss prospects of deepening integration, including forming common markets of gas, oil and oil products," the Kremlin press service said earlier. They will "also exchange views on extending trade and economic ties of the Union with foreign states and regional integration alliances," it said.

The leaders are expected to discuss Eurasian Economic Union cooperation with other countries and associations, such as China, Serbia, the European Union as well as ASEAN and Shanghai Cooperation Organization countries.
