Expert: Armenia will not join EaEU together with Karabakh
Armenia is approaching the finish line and I believe that at the announced time – by July 1 – the country will officially join the Eurasian Economic Union (EaEU), political scientist Sergey Minasyan told a press conference in Yerevan.
“If this does not happen and the events develop in the worst possible way, then Armenia will take part in the work of that organization from January 1,” he added.
Commenting on the recent statement of Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, the expert said that the Kazakh leader actually said nothing about Karabakh, he only spoke about Armenia’s borders.
“We must understand that Armenia joined many political and economic organizations without Karabakh in the past and can do so in the future since Karabakh is not part of Armenia. It is a political unit with all its attributes so in the legal respect Armenia could not and will not join the Eurasian Economic Union together with Karabakh,” Minasyan concluded.
