BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 7. The EU already has given a helping hand in opening of transportation and communication links in the South Caucasus, but certainly, will continue to be heavily engaged on this issue, EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus Toivo Klaar said in an exclusive interview with Trend.
“I would point out that at the last leaders’ meeting on May 22 this was an important part of the discussions and indeed the leaders reached certain important understandings that have now been build up on when the deputy prime ministers of Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia have met over the past month to address this issue. But this is of course, a key issue for Azerbaijan, it is also extremely important for the EU, and it is naturally also very much important for Armenia. And personally, I am confident that it is possible to find a solution and to move forward on this very important issue in the near future, because indeed, this is something that is of natural interest to all involved and the EU will continue to pay great attention to this area,” the EU Special Representative added.
