True for Serbia and Belarus, but Russia is so big - both in terms of surface as well as population - that it wouldn't really work with the way the union is currently structured. I'm not even sure if it's possible to restructure the union in a way that allows Russia joining without them becoming an hegemonic power within the union itself.
