MINASIAN: NKR’S ECONOMIC RECOGNITION WILL LEAD TO ITS POLITICAL RECOGNITION

Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh are in a ‘common customs union’ and in
case of Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union, Nagorno Karabakh will
also become part of that zone, the Armenian parliament’s deputy Gagik
Minasian told journalists today.
In his words, the Armenian authorities have repeatedly stated that
there is no customs border between Armenia and the NKR, while on
December 22 the Russian president signed an agreement on the abolition
of customs duties between Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
These agreements simplify the NKR-related problems that have to do
with the final recognition of the NKR, Gagik Minasian said. “The
NKR will become a territory of the Customs Union and will have the
same status as unrecognized Abkhazia and South Ossetia. The NKR will
get an economic recognition, which will later form a basis for its
political recognition,” G. Minasian declared.
