TEHRAN – Tehran says it does not want its relations with Armenia and Azerbaijan to be affected by the Karabakh conflict, IRNA reported.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi said on Sunday the conflict should be resolved based on international regulations and through dialogue.

“Iran continues to follow its principled and rational policies with this regard,” he added.

Pointing to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s visit to Tehran, Qassemi said, “As I’ve repeatedly said the stance of the Islamic Republic of Iran toward its neighbors is clear and transparent.”

“[Our] neighbors are the top priority of Iran’s foreign policy,” he added.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
