Iran envoy: Ties with Azerbaijan can’t be tarnished ‘by any factor’
Fraternal relations between Iran and Azerbaijan cannot be adversely affected by any factor, Iranian Ambassador Mahammad Bagir Bahrami has told IRNA news agency, according to the Iranian embassy in Baku.
US secret service claimed that Iran has tried to stage an Islamic revolution in neighboring Azerbaijan, US online TV channel FOX 11 reported. It alleged that two loud terrorist acts and one assassination were to be orchestrated in Azerbaijan in 2012, under a plot exposed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). These thoroughly planned acts aimed to cause public uproar and panic among the people, FOX 11 said on a program devoted to uncovering conspiracies of the agents of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps with the aid of Mexican drug dealers. FOX 11 said that an assassination in Azerbaijan was ordered by those close to the ayatollah-controlled regime in Iran.
Ambassador Bahrami said the United States and "international Zionists" are seeking to sow seeds of discord between Iran and other regional countries.
"But they must know that relevant provocations and plans of world imperialism will have no effect," he added.
