Iran is in favor of unblocking of the regional connections but is highlighting that the process must be done under the sovereignty of Armenia.
“We support peace,” Iranian Ambassador to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani told reporters.
“We have supported and will support the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace talks. We believe that the signing of the peace agreement is in the interests of the two countries and the region. And we are ready to bring our contribution to the signing of this agreement,” he said.
The Ambassador reminded that Iran has welcomed Armenia’s Crossroads of Peace project.
“This can become the occasion for unblocking in the region. We do not oppose unblocking, you know our stance. But any unblocking must happen under the sovereignty of the Republic of Armenia. And I think that this project will contribute to the shipment of goods in the region,” the Ambassador added.
