At the Feb. 19 meeting with journalists Iranian Ambassador to RA Seyed Ali Saghaeyan said that Iran is the only country having common border with Nagorno-Karabakh, thereby recognizing liberated territories part of NKR.
Asked about his stance on possible deployment of Russian and U.S. peacekeepers on border with Iran as a result of Karabakh conflict settlement, Ambassador replied: “Considering that Iran is the only country with common border with Karabakh, we have clear stand on deployment of peacekeeping forces.”
He also touched upon potential aggression against Iran by U.S., underlining that currently neither U.S. nor Israel has the opportunity to commit aggression against the country.
“Definitely we have to take into consideration all options, including military aggression, however Zionist regime has no opportunity to exert pressure and gain victory over Iran. As for the U.S., accounting for its military presence in Afghanistan and domestic problems, it will hardly initiate act of aggression towards Iran,” Saghaeyan concluded.

"Iran supports the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. At the international level, Iran has always made efforts and will keep making efforts for the return of Nagorno-Karabakh to Azerbaijan", said the vice-speaker of the Iranian Parliament Muhammad Peza Bahonar.
Three days before this statement, the Iranian ambassador to Armenia said that Iran "as a country bordering with Karabakh", has its own opinions in connection with the deployment of peacekeeping forces in the zone of conflict.
The statement was greeted by the Armenian media. Iran was stated to have practically recognized the belonging of adjacent areas to Karabakh. In fact, the strict statement of the Iranian ambassador, meaning that Iran remains a major factor in the fact that the Karabakh conflict has still not been resolved by "peace enforcement" was crossed out by unwarranted conclusions about Iran's recognition of Karabakh.
Such an attitude is particular to the Armenian socio-political thought which has already failed serious political projects because of its jingoistic patriotism, in addition those relating to Iran. Sometimes it is better to chew rather than to speak.
