Each country has its own foreign policy course and makes decisions correspondingly. Uzbekistan joined GUUAM in 1999 and made decision to quit this organization in 2005.The matter which Azerbaijan has concern in is GUUAM becoming a strong organization. As you know, very useful decisions were made in Kishinev summit. That is Uzbekistan's own business whether it leaves GUUAM".
