Iran-Azerbaijan-Summon

Head of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin
Borujerdi said on Sunday that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has
summoned the Azeri ambassador to Tehran to give explanation on the
confiscation of Iran’s cargo.

Borujerdi told IRNA that the Islamic Republic of Iran has expressed its
protest over the seizure of a nuclear cargo dispatched from Russia to
Iran.

He also noted that Russia is responsible for shipment of all the parts
Russia dispatched for completing Bushehr nuclear power plant, and that
Moscow should follow up the reason for the Azeri action.

Russians are negotiating with Azeri officials to address
misunderstandings over the cargo, he added.

Iran underlines the necessity of observing the principle of good
neighborly relations between Iran and the Azeri Republic as well as
refraining from such acts in the future, he added.
