The Iranian Embassy in Armenia denied Baku’s allegations concerning Iranian Ambassador’s speech on Nagorno Karabakh conflict, in a written statement made on Friday, June 3.



“The Embassy of Iran in Baku never made a statement concerning the issue, and in his latest interview the Ambassador underlined that the official position of the Islamic Republic of Iran remained unchanged.



Once again, the Embassy underlines the official position of Islamic Republic of Iran is the peaceful resolution of the conflict based on the norms of the international law,” the statement reads.

Earlier, Azerbaijani media informed that Iranian Ambassador in Baku, Mohsun Pakayin allegedly stated that Tehran stands with Azerbaijan on Nagorno Karabakh conflict.



“The conflict should be resolved based on the principle of territorial integrity. The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs should make sure the requirements of UN Security Council resolutions are fulfilled,” the Azerbaijani media misquoted the alleged statement of the Ambassador.
