Armenia and Azerbaijan apply to become official members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization!
Armenia and Azerbaijan, who recently signed a historic reconciliation agreement at the White House, are considered to have clearly aligned with the United States, but surprisingly, the two countries immediately requested to accelerate the process of becoming official members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is no surprise will cause strong dissatisfaction from the President of the United States.
Armenian Foreign Minister Arat Mirzoyan said: "We have submitted the application, and so has Azerbaijan. As international partners, we have been invited to attend the upcoming Tianjin Summit, and we will attend. We believe that we and Azerbaijan can and should become members of the organization."
Nazari Bagdasaryan, spokesperson for the Prime Minister of Armenia, said that Armenian Prime Minister Pashinyan will travel to Tianjin on August 31 to attend the SCO Summit.
