  • Iran Recognized Constitutional Border with Artsakh



    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.

      I thought it was eligible for a thread on its own because it's an interesting news. I want to know what Armenians think about this specifically.

        Iranian Deputy Speaker's statement mere view, non-official

        Iran’s official disposition over international policy can be only stated by Iranian President, Foreign Ministry and Foreign Minister, Ardeshir Javadi, the head of PR department of Iran’s Embassy to Armenia told Panorama.am referring to Iranian Deputy Speaker Muhammad Reza Bahonar’s statement.

        Trend News reported earlier Iran’s Deputy Speaker saying “Iran backs Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. In the international arena Iran has always made efforts and will continue those to return Nagorno-Karabakh to Azerbaijan.”

        “The statement of other officials are mere views and are considered to be non-official statements,” the Embassy official said.

        He recalled Iran’s Ambassador’s statement saying Nagorno-Karabakh borders Iran, hence, Iran accepts that the freed territories are part of Nagorno-Karabakh.

          Russia lauds Iran mediation in Karabakh

          Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Nesterenko
          Russia says it has no opposition to Iran's initiative to mediate
          between Azerbaijan and Armenia in order to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh
          dispute.

          Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Nesterenko said on Friday
          that Moscow does not oppose Iran's proposal to hold trilateral talks
          involving Azerbaijan, Armenia and Iran on the Karabakh dispute, RIA
          Novosti reported.

          "We have nothing against the meeting. If such a meeting is held,
          obviously, it is necessary to wait for the results and then speak of
          the possibility of Iran's mediation in the Karabakh conflict
          settlement," Nesterenko added.

          He went on to say that Iran's mediation proposal only referred to a
          trilateral meeting at this stage.

          Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki suggested a trilateral
          meeting involving the foreign ministers of Armenia, Azerbaijan and
          Iran to resolve the dispute "through negotiations and on the basis of
          justice."

          Both Azerbaijan and Armenia have laid claim to the Nagorno-Karabakh
          territory, which is largely populated by Armenians but located in
          Azerbaijan.

          Armenia took control of Nagorno-Karabakh in the early 1990s following
          a short but bloody war with Azerbaijan in which around 30,000 people
          lost their lives.

          While a ceasefire was brokered in 1994, the dispute continues to
          remain unresolved despite years of international mediations.
