Baku, May 9, IRNA
The Republic of Azerbaijan relies and trusts support of friendly
states in order to consolidate its independence, said an Azeri
parliamentarian Aidin Mirzazadeh here on Monday.
Lawmaker Mirzazadeh said Iran has always been the 'friend in need' of
the government and people of Azerbaijan, highlighting Tehran's
stances in support for Azerbaijan at the beginning of the Karabakh
conflict with Armenia Republic.
"Iran also supported Azerbaijan Republic's position on the first day
of Karabakh dispute, offering worthy assistance to the refugees and
the needy," said Mirzazadeh in an address to ceremonies for donating
Iran's assistance to a group of Azeri needy children and youth,
covered by the non-governmental organization of Azerbaijan's `Youth
and Needy Children'.
Iran's ambassador to Baku Afshar Soleimani told the gathering that
the Islamic Republic of Iran has never left any stone unturned in
providing assistance to the needy citizens of the friendly and
neighboring country of Azerbaijan.
Soleymani said Imam Khomeini Relief Committee and the Islamic
Republic of Iran's Red Crescent Society have offered humanitarian
relief aid to the poor and war refugees in Azerbaijan.
He said Iran has always been in favor of Azerbaijan's development and
improvement of the living and welfare standards of the republic's
citizens.
Soleymani said a bright prospect lies ahead for Iran-Azerbaijan
relations, which is in the interest of Iranian and Azeri governments
and people and is significant for the progress of the region.

Children' covers more than 5,000 needy in Baku and different cities
in the republic.
