“Political Revenge” Baku Fumes As India & Pakistan Block Azerbaijan & Armenia’s SCO Bids | VERTEX

At the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Tianjin, Armenia and Azerbaijan sought full membership but faced resistance from key players. India blocked Azerbaijan’s bid over its ties with Pakistan, while Armenia’s candidacy was opposed by Pakistan and Belarus, reflecting deep political divides. Both countries see the SCO as a way to expand economic opportunities and strengthen their geopolitical standing—Armenia by diversifying beyond Russia, and Azerbaijan by reinforcing its role as a regional hub. Yet consensus rules mean even one veto can stall progress, leaving both nations navigating ambition, rivalry, and the shifting balance of Eurasian institutions.
