Only Iran and Armenia have the same view on the so-called “Zangezur corridor;” we have no disagreements on this matter. This was stated by Iranian ambassador to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani, during a press conference Thursday.

“And only Iran supports Armenia, which is against the ‘Zangezur corridor.’ Of the countries in the region, only Iran stands with Armenia. The so-called ‘Zangezur corridor’ opposes the interests of both Armenia and Iran,” added the Iranian envoy to Armenia.

He noted that Iran has presented its position on this matter to both Russia and several other countries.

Sobhani said that Iran positively assesses the fact that Armenia’s border with Iran will be overseen by Armenian border guards.

According to him, it makes no sense for the borders of a country to be overseen by the border guards of another country.
