Alwaght- Tehran is opposed to outsiders’ presence in the region on the pretext of resolving the issues, Iranian President Seyyed Ibrahim Raisi said on Thursday.
Raisi made the remarks in a meeting with Mher Grigoryan, the Deputy Prime Minister of Armenia, adding that not only does the outsiders’ involvement in the regional issues lead to no solutions, but also it brings about more severe challenges, according to IRNA.
The president described relations between Tehran and Yerevan as “historical, friendly, and constructive.”
Commenting on Caucasus issues, he said that Iran attaches importance to maintaining the stability and security in the region.
Raisi welcomed the peace talks between Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan, expressing Iran’s readiness to ensure the strategic security of the Caucasus region given the red lines of the Islamic Republic in this regard.
He highlighted the full implementation of all agreements between the two neighbours, saying that the realization of the deals requires efforts and a joint economic commission in order to pursue the that the two countries need to reach.
