EDB ready to consider Azerbaijan`s application for accession -  Nikolai Podguzov

ArmInfo.If Azerbaijan expresses a desire to join the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB), the Bank is  ready to consider this application. Chairman of the Board of the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB) Nikolai Podguzov stated this on June 27 in Almaty, within the framework of the Annual Meeting and Business  Forum of the EDB, in a conversation with journalists to clarify how the cooperation of the Bank and the bank's member countries with Azerbaijan is progressing and what are the prospects for joining Azerbaijan to this bank.

Podguzov stated that Azerbaijan is located in the region where the  EDB has its main activities. "Therefore, if Azerbaijan expresses a  desire to join the Bank, we will be happy to consider such a  proposal. And I am sure we will definitely find a solution.  Azerbaijan actively cooperates with both the Russian Federation and  Kazakhstan - these are our founding countries. Therefore, if such  proposals are made , we are ready to bring these proposals to our  shareholders. And then they will decide, I'm sure they will decide  positively," summed up the chairman of the EDB board.

Let us recall that the EDB is an international financial organization  carrying out investment activities in the Eurasian space. For more  than 16 years, the EDB has been promoting the strengthening and  expansion of economic ties and the comprehensive development of its  member countries: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia  and Tajikistan.
