(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 30. Russia
welcomes Azerbaijan's active involvement in Eurasian integration
processes, trend reports citing the response of the Russian MFA to media questions
at the press conference of Russian FM Sergey Lavrov on the results
of 2022.
'Baku successfully hosted a series of expert events
dedicated to the Eurasian theme in 2021-2022, in particular, the
strengthening of ties between Azerbaijan and the EAEU [Eurasian
Economic Union]. A landmark event in this regard was the XV
Eurasian Economic Forum, held in Azerbaijan in October 2022. We are
confident that further steps in this direction fully meet the
interests of the republic located in the center of the Eurasian
continent,' the ministry noted.
As the Russian MFA said, the initiative of the Greater
Eurasian Partnership, put forward back in 2015, is not just a
conjunctural project tied to a time interval for Russia.
'This is an invitation to the development of
multi-vector and multi-level cross-border cooperation in bilateral
and international formats. As for the latter, and we have always
talked about this, an important component of it is aligning the
potentials of interstate associations, among which we see such
practical cooperation-oriented and positively charged organizations
as the SCO [Shanghai Cooperation Organization], the EAEU, and ASEAN
[Association of Southeast Asian Nations],' the ministry said.
