Zarif spoke about the need to support friendship and cooperation between Armenia and Iran.

Our red line is the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia, as we have clearly stated

- emphasized Mohammad Javad Zarif in a conversation with the head of the Armenian Foreign Ministry Ara Ayvazyan.



At the same time, the head of the Iranian Foreign Ministry expressed condolences to the Armenians in connection with the victims that Yerevan suffered during the military confrontation with Baku in the NKR. Zarif expressed Iran's readiness to provide Armenia with any humanitarian support.

Mohammad Javad Zarif visited Armenia after a trip to Azerbaijan and Russia. The situation in the region after the end of the war in Nagorno-Karabakh became one of the important topics of discussion between the head of the Iranian Foreign Ministry and the leaders of Azerbaijan.

        How much clearer? NK is not included in Armenia.
        For NK it was necessary to fight for real, and not pretend. Now the Armenians will disentangle their races on their maydown.

      Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, being in Baku, said that Iran is glad that friendly and fraternal Azerbaijan has liberated its territories from occupation and transferred them under the control of the Azerbaijani people.
      Zarif added that tomorrow, the Azerbaijani side will discuss issues on Karabakh, maintaining stability there, the restoration of the liberated territories; and regional cooperation and the North-South and South-West corridors.

      So I was surprised by some RED LINES. Iran outlined its position a couple of weeks after the start of the conflict - the integrity of Armenia and the right of Azerbaijan to liberate its territories. Azerbaijan outlined its position almost 30 years ago - to return NK and not to claim on the territory of Armenia. In the article, this is presented almost as a threat from Iran to Azerbaijan.

      Zarif had to say something. He brought a felt-tip pen with him. Red.

      All important ones, puff up, draw red lines. The Russian approach is simpler and more modest, just the forehead with brilliant green.

      And then! Armenians do not stick to Nakhichevan,
      Where there are almost no Armenians at all,
      But Azerbaijanis are crawling to Karabakh
      Just like the Albanians in Kosovo,
      It would be wise to exchange it sensibly
      Paths to every enclave
      Since Armenia is two and a half thousand years old,
      Azerbaijan is not even a hundred,
      And according to the Caucasian covenant the best
      The junior senior should listen ...
