“Iran has worked out a package of proposals referring to the NKR conflict settlement,” Iran’s ambassador to Azerbaijan Mohsen Pak Ayeen has stated, the embassy’s official site reports.
The Iranian ambassador answering to the question of “Rights and Freedom” journal about the conflict between Azerbaijan and Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, as well as the resumption of war between Armenia and Azerbaijan in that context has noted, “The war may resume as far as the NKR conflict is not yet settled. The disruption of security in the region is dangerous for Iran. Iran has a land border with both Armenia and Azerbaijan, thus the security of the region is within Iran’s interests. Recently, the growth of the armaments increases the probable resumption of the war.”
The Iranian ambassador to Azerbaijan touched upon Iran’s role in the NKR conflict settlement process and noted in particular, “We are ready to support the conflict settlement. Iran has worked out a package of proposals referring to the NKR conflict settlement. If the conflicting sides accept Iran’s mediation, Tehran will present its propositions.”
To the question how would the conflict settlement influence the Iran – USA relations, the ambassador Pak Ayeen has answered, “Improvement of Iran and USA relations will promote both the NKR conflict settlement and the security in the whole world.”
