There are two Hay Dat offices in Iran. One is in Tehran and the other
is in Nor-Jugha, Derenik Melikyan, editor of Aliq Tehran-based
Armenian-language newspaper, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. `We
organize April evenings, seminars on genocide studies, including the
Armenian Genocide. Books dedicated to Armenian-Iranian,
Turkish-Iranian and Armenian-Turkish relations are published,’ he
said. `Iran has tensed relations with Turkey and, moreover, with
Azerbaijan. Tehran doesn’t welcome Baku’s yearning for the Turkic
world. Panturanism is inadmissible for Iran. Maybe this is the reason
why it shares the Armenian stance of Karabakh and Genocide. Moreover,
thanks to the NKR security belt, the Armenian-Iranian border became
longer,’ Melikyan said.
