The commander of Iran's Border Guards Brigadier General Ahmad Ali Goudarzi called the borders between Iran and Azerbaijan the borders of peace and friendship, the Iranian media reported on 24 June.

The Iranian commander made the remarks during the inspection of border checkpoints between Iran and Azerbaijan in Namin city of Iran.

Goudarzi noted that there are no problems at the borders of the two neighbouring countries.

"Over the years, there has been no specific border problem between the two countries and both sides have committed to the treaties and agreements,” he added.

Noting that Iran has the good situation at the borders with its neighbours, the brigadier-commander pointed out that strengthening and equipping the country's border guards is being considered as much as possible, and for this purpose, financial needs are being assessed.

"With the vigilance and efforts of the border guards in all parts of the country, the borders of the Islamic Republic are in complete security,” Goudarzi said.
