Ali Gasanov, head of the socio-political section of the Azerbaijani Presidential Administration, protested against Armenia’s joining the Customs Union because Nagorno-Karabakh and 7 districts in the area remained occupied by Armenian soldiers.
He reminded that resolutions and decisions of the UN, OSCE and other international organizations recognized the territory as occupied by an aggressor. Thus, membership in the Customs Union or any other similar organization will only be possible after withdrawal from the occupied territories.
Becoming a member of the Customs Union would cause a dispute about territories and borders of Armenia.
