ArmInfo. A progressive dialogue between Azerbaijan and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in any format would intensify trade, develop transport and logistic infrastructure and would be beneficial for all the regional states, Mikhail Yevdokimov of the Russian foreign office told TASS as he spoke of the prospects of Azerbaijan's observer status at the EAEU.
"This issue is being talked of. The EAU is open to the states interested in cooperation. We certainly welcome the CIS member-states' willingness for deeper integration," he said.
In this context, Mr Yevdokimov mentioned expert discussions in Baku last December, with the Azerbaijani and Russian vice-premiers' participation.
