The ongoing conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh won’t prevent Armenia from
joining the Customs Union of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, the head
of the State Duma’s Committee for CIS Affairs, Leonid Slutsky, says.

“The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict isn’t an obstacle to Armenia joining
the Customs Union. However this issue will by all means be taken into
consideration,” he is quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.
