AZERBAIJAN ASKS IRAN TO PRESSURE ARMENIA OVER KARABAKH
By empty (8/6/2002 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Meeting in Baku on 6 August with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Mohsen Aminzade, President Heidar Aliev reasoned that as Iran maintains "broad economic ties" with Armenia, it is in a position to "influence" Yerevan's stance on the Karabakh conflict. Aliev said that in its future relations with Iran, Azerbaijan will abide by the bilateral treaty on friendship, cooperation, and mutual security signed during his visit to Tehran in May. But at the same time he stressed that under that accord, both countries pledge to respect the sovereignty of the other and refrain from interfering in its internal affairs.Visit also
