    IRANIAN AMBASSADOR TO BAKU SAYS SIGNIFICANCE OF TEHRAN'S TIES WITH
    YEREVAN OFTEN EXAGGERATED

    YEREVAN, JANUARY 10, ARMENPRESS: In an interview with an
    Azerbaijani Day.az online newspaper, Iranian ambassador Afshar
    Suleiman shrugged off allegations that his country's cooperation with
    Armenia may harm Azeri-Iranian relations.
    "There are Armenian-Iranian ties but they are not directed against
    Azerbaijan. The significance of these ties are often exaggerated,"
    the ambassador said.
    "Armenia and Iran have signed an agreement on building a gas
    pipeline which is supposed to be completed by 2007. Before the
    pipeline is built the region may see extensive changes, particularly,
    Armenia and Azerbaijan may resolve their problems," he was quoted as
    saying.
    The ambassador said also Iran would not use the Iran-Armenia
    pipeline against Azerbaijan. stressing that Iran-Armenia ties may
    benefit Azerbaijan, as Iran may help promote the resolution of the
    Nagorno Karabagh conflict.
