Baku / 18.02.23 / Turan: The head of Azerbaijan accused the official circles of Iran of involvement in the terrorist attack against the Azerbaijani embassy in Tehran on January 27. He stated this on Saturday, answering questions from journalists in Munich.
The Iranian police and security service watched as an armed terrorist broke into the embassy building twice for more than half an hour. Killed one and wounded two more security officers. After he was evicted from the building, the police detained him.
“We demand a transparent investigation. The fact that the terrorist gave interviews to the Iranian media after the attack speaks of his connection with representatives of official circles.
Attempts to present a terrorist as insane is an attempt to hush up the case. The Iranian authorities must investigate and punish not only the terrorist, but also those representatives of the official circles who sent him. Without this, it is impossible to talk about the normalization of our relations with Iran,” Ilham Aliyev concluded. -0-
