Yury Ushakov stressed that it was impossible to exclude any particular country from cooperation within the union by means of a mere decision
MOSCOW, May 26. /TASS/. No country can be expelled from the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) but any country, for instance, Armenia, can terminate its membership there, Russian presidential aide Yury Ushakov said.
"According to the fundamental principles of cooperation within the EAEU, it is simply impossible to exclude any particular country from cooperation within the union by means of a mere decision," he told a briefing when asked about Armenia’s potential expulsion from the EAEU.
"A possible option is when a country announces its decision to terminate cooperation due these or those reasons," he added.
