^If a pro-EU movement picked up pace in Russia, then the necessary steps to joining the EU would slowly take place.

It's like Turkey, it was accepted to join years ago, but they still don't fully make out all the criteria, so they are slowly making the changes necessary to join.

I personally hope that it doesn't become a world union, otherwise it may start to lose its effect, with some countries demanding more power, we might end up with something like the UN.

I disagree.

The problem with the UN isn't that there are a lot of people in it.

It's the different kinds of people into it.

Whenever there is a Veto war on policy... who is involved?

On the one hand you have the Western Democracies... and on the other you have the Non democracies.

Vetos were largely put in place in the UN for this reason.  Pardon the negative world view... but a UN without vetos would be like a prison run on a 1 person 1 vote system.
