By closed universe, I mean just something like 3-D analog of a closed ring or a sphere.

I think it can be one of arguments that the universe must not be closed. Is that right? The paradox is just the fruit of man's imagination that does not actually exist.

No, these are independent ideas. The twin 'paradox' is not actually a paradox, just a misconception.
