Fake stories, threats, and the creation of suspicious videos cannot undermine the strong relations between the two countries, or cause divisions and suspicions between us. This was stated by Iranian ambassador to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani, during a press conference Thursday.

According to him, mutual diplomatic visits and mutual understanding did not allow enemies to create doubts or misunderstandings in the relations between the two countries.

“Relations between Armenia and Iran are developing in the spirit of mutual respect and support,” added the Iranian envoy to Armenia.

On January 30, a video was posted on a social media account of the “Independent Center for Strategic Studies” NGO where a group of men were loudly chanting “Karabakh, Karabakh” in Azerbaijani at Yerevan’s Republic Square. Later, the Armenian authorities stated that they were Azerbaijani Iranians.
