BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 7. If there is a comprehensive settlement between Armenia and Azerbaijan, which will be the reopening of transport infrastructure and communications that will certainly bring in more investors, who will see, in the changing circumstances the increasing importance of the South Caucasus for international transit and trade, EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus Toivo Klaar said in an exclusive interview with Trend.
“And not only that, but I see that in the future, as we can have more cooperation between the three South Caucasus countries in different fields, whether it is cooperation in energy, or whether it is cooperation in water resource management, or even cooperation in such issues as promoting tourism together, I see there being a net benefit to all three South Caucasus countries in joint peaceful development of the region. So, I believe that the path that we are on right now calls great promise for Armenia and Azerbaijan, but for the entire region and then also for the EU, because all three countries are important neighbors of ours and we, certainly, wish all the best to our neighbors,” EU Special Representative added.
