Baku/21.10.22/Turan: Iran promises protection to the Armenians in Zangezur, this was announced today in Yerevan and the city of Kafan, where the Iranian Consulate General was opened. The opening ceremony was attended by the foreign ministers of Iran and Armenia.
When asked by News.am what the consul thinks about the residents of Syunik, who live “in an atmosphere of constant fear” 2 km from the border with Azerbaijan, Consul Mortez Varamin said: “I advise the residents of the city of Kafan not to worry, we are here for the Armenian people.” Earlier, at a briefing in Yerevan, Iranian Foreign Minister Abdollahian once again repeated the thesis that Iran would not allow changes to Armenia's borders.
In the city of Kafan (60 km from the border with Iran) there is no Iranian diaspora or Iranian business interests. Apparently, the only purpose of the Iranians will be to spy on the actions of Azerbaijan on the border. --02D--
