Iran specialist Vardan Voskanyan has reacted to a phone call between the Iranian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers held for the third time in a week on Friday, saying Iran continues the “carrot and stick" policy towards the Aliyev regime.
“The brief readouts of the phone call make it clear that no tangible progress in the settlement of their relations has been made, but they indicate the possibility of organizing a bilateral meeting between the FMs,” Voskanyan, head of the Chair of Iranian Studies at Yerevan State University (YSU), wrote on Telegram on Saturday.
He stresses strong condemnations of the Baku dictatorial regime’s activities continue unabated in Iran.
“Taking all this into account, Iran continues the "carrot and stick" policy towards the Baku dictator, however, no real "carrots" are visible at least in the near future,” the expert said.
