Eurasian economic area not to create problems for Nagorno-Karabakh –

Literary critic and author of the book entitled “Unstarted and
unfinished war”, which is dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the
ceasefire, Vardan Devrikyan believes that it is a matter of fact
Armenia will not join the Eurasian Economic Union (EaU) together with
Nagorno-Karabakh.

“It is clear because Nagorno-Karabakh is not part of Armenia, and it
declared independence irrespective of being recognized or
unrecognized. Of concern is the possibility of the Customs Union
member-states’ having a common external border because there is no
clear-cut definition of a common external border. And the Eurasian
economic area cannot create any problems for Nagorno-Karabakh,”
Devrikyan told Tert.am.

The implication is setting a customs station between Armenia and
Nagorno-Karabakh for the other Customs Union member-states to control
Nagorno-Karabakh’s economic activity.

If Armenia’s authorities state they will find solutions, people should
try to believe them.

“At least I believe them as in what concerns foreign policy issues
because no condition has been set by other trade alliances – that
Armenia is to join them together with Nagorno-Karabakh.”
