"The external policies and relations of our states with other
states have no negative influence on the relations between Iran and
Azerbaijan. There are friendly, brotherly relations between Azerbaijan
and Iran," said Iranian Ambassador to Azerbaijan, Nasir Hamidi Zare,
APA reports.
The Ambassador did not rule out discussing the question related to
Gabala radar station during Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's
visit to Azerbaijan. The diplomat said his country offers opening bus
routes between Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic and Azerbaijan, "But
first of all, Azerbaijan is to solve problems regarding simplification
of visa regimes for this."
The Ambassador added that Azerbaijani and Iranian Presidents will
also discuss issues related to the status of the Caspian Sea.
"A summit on this issue is planned. Relevant step are being taken
regarding the status of the Caspian Sea," Mr.Zare said.
Iranian Ambassador reiterating that Iran is committed to recognize
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan stressed the importance of
withdrawal from the occupied territories, bringing refugees back
to their places. The Ambassador, however, refused to answer the
question on Iran-Armenia relations. He said only "if I am told to
visit Garabagh, I would not. Because, it has been occupied."
