/PanARMENIAN.Net/ What is happening in Iran’s northern provinces for
over 10 days is apparently directed not only by Baku and Ankara, but
also Washington, political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told a
PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words, it should not be forgotten
that authors of the notorious cartoon, as well as editor of the Iran
newspaper were arrested and apologies are presented to the Turkic
speaking population of Iran.

«However, an «occasion» was invented and there is sort of official
ground for discontent. It should not be surprising any more that
slogans «Karabakh is our,» «Turkic people are united» and similar ones
are heard during rallies,» he remarked.

When commenting on the fact of burning the Armenian national flag in
Tebriz, the Armenian expert underscored that the incident is one of
the directions of the policy of rally participants. «Their major goal
is not Karabakh or Armenia. Major goal of rally participants is to
tear away the territory, which will be the support for Turan’s
struggle against Iran,» the expert said.
