/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Unless finite peace is achieved Azerbaijan will not
cooperate with Armenia within the World Trade Organization, Azeri Deputy FM
Mahmud Mamedkuliyev stated July 7 at a briefing. He is convinced that
Armenia will not prevent Azerbaijan from entering the organization. To
remind, Armenia joined the WTO in 2001. In Mamedkuliyev’s words, Armenia
passed ahead of Azerbaijan because it sent its appeal earlier, in 1993.
`Armenia was admitted to the WTO with certain concessions. However today the
country with weak economy cannot honor its obligations and made a request to
mitigate them’, he noted adding he is not sure whether the WTO will comply
with Armenia’s request.
