Azerbaijan’s membership not in the agenda of EAEU: EAEU minister
Azerbaijan’s membership is not in the agenda of EAEU, Veronika Nikishina, Minister in charge of Trade of the EAEC, said at a concluding press conference of the Eurasian Week international forum in Yerevan today.
“I can only say that the issue is not on the agenda,” she said.
Earlier today consultant to Russian president Sergey Glazev stated that Azerbaijan’s membership to the organization is possible despite the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.
“If the EAEU involves all the countries of post-soviet territory the number of conflicts will reduce. Our position is that all the conflicts in the post-soviet territory should be settled through negotiations, consultations and concessions. We are interested in the absence of any conflicts,” he said, speaking about Nagorno Karabakh conflict.
