AFSHAR SULEYMANI: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN IRAN AND ARMENIA ARE NOT AIMED
AT DAMAGE TO AZERBAIJAN

YEREVAN, JANUARY 10. ARMINFO. The relations between Iran and Armenia
are existing, however, they are not directed to the detriment to
Azerbaijan, says Ambassador of Islamic Republic of Iran to Azerbaijan
Afshar Suleymani in the interview with Day.Az.

According to him, the level of present relations between Iran and
Armenia is often exaggerated. The ambassador noted that there is an
agreement between Iran and Armenia concerning laying of gas-pipeline,
which will last till 2007, and some changes could be taken place
during this time, particularly, the conflicts between Azerbaijan and
Armenia could be settled. At the same time, he emphasized that even in
the case of implementation of the gas-pipeline project, Iran will not
use this argument against Azerbaijan. “These relations would be in the
interests of Azerbaijan as Iran, having relations with Armenia, may
support the settlement of the conflict”, – said the ambassador. -R-
