We are doing everything possible to use our ties with Azerbaijan to establish peace in the region. This was stated by Iranian ambassador to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani, speaking with reporters on Thursday—and in response to a request from the Armenian News-NEWS.am correspondent to comment on the information about the transfer of a large amount of weapons from Israel to Azerbaijan.

Sobhani noted that Iran is against militarization in the region. The ambassador added that Tehran is closely following the development of events.

“We have good relations with Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan is our neighbor,” Sobhani added.
