Azerbaijan’s accession to the Developing Eight Organization for Economic Cooperation (D-8) would further enhance the country’s cooperation with member states, Malik Ayub Sumbal, Pakistan-based senior political analyst, told Trend Oct.24.

„Azerbaijan deserves the membership of D-8, because the economy of Azerbaijan is constantly flourishing and even in the oil slump, the country has a stable economy,” he said. “I don’t think that there will be any problem in Azerbaijan’s D8 membership.”

The political analyst believes that Azerbaijan’s accession to this organization would definitely be a positive step.

“I am sure that this membership would further enhance the cooperation between Azerbaijan and D-8 members,” he added.
