Iran is confident that Karabakh conflict must be settled peacefully, Ambassador Mohammad Raiesi told reporters in Yerevan. Iran’s Ambassador to Armenia said it is necessary to rule out any possibility of creating tension during the Karabakh peace process.
“The problem cannot be solved by force. International principles and norms must prevail in talks. Karabakh issue must be settled within the framework of international law,” he said on Tuesday. Mohammad Raiesi is confident that any conflict can be settled, if the parties are adhering to international principles and norms. Asked what Iran can offer if engaged as a mediator, Ambassador pointed at good relations both with Armenia and Azerbaijan.
“All our neighbors are equal for us, we are trying to establish good relations with all. However, we have strategic relations with some neighbors, including Armenia. Therefore, nothing can influence our principle viewpoint on the issue,” he added.
