YEREVAN. Feb 7
Armenia does not take seriously a statement by an Iranian presidential
candidate, Ayatollah Sayed Mohammad Bagher Kharrazi, that Armenia is a
former Iranian territory.
"Certainly, we cannot take this statement seriously. We hope the
election campaign will make him more serious," a source from the
Armenian Foreign Ministry told Interfax on Thursday.
Kharrazi said earlier in speaking to voters that, if he is elected
president, he would seek Azerbaijan's, Armenia's and Tajikistan's
unification with Iran as its former breakaway territories.
