President: Iran Against Western Forces in Caucasus

 President Ebrahim Raisi said Monday Iran supports the territorial integrity and historical borders of regional countries and firmly opposes any geopolitical change in the region. “The Islamic Republic of Iran opposes any geopolitical change or the presence of Western military forces in the Caucasus because the presence of foreigners will not only fail to solve any problem, but will also cause new problems,” Raisi told Armenian Prime minister Nikol Pashinyan over phone. “In line with the neighborhood policy and improvement of relations, the Islamic Republic of Iran attaches great significance and
gives priority to increasing interactions and cooperation with the South Caucasus region,” he added. The Iranian president emphasized that Armenia and Azerbaijan should recognize each other’s territorial integrity as an important step towards the establishment of peace. The common border between the two countries should transcend beyond being just a security issue, and must rather be used to boost economic ties, he said. For his part, the Armenian prime minister briefed the Iranian president on the latest developments regarding his country’s peace talks with Azerbaijan in which they would agree on borders, settle differences over the enclave, and unfreeze relations.
