resolutions

Iranian ambassador to Azerbaijan Afshar Soleymani has said that great
powers have no interest in implementing four UN resolutions on
Karabakh demanding the withdrawal of Armenian forces from Azerbaijani
occupied districts.
In an interview with the "Real Truth" programme of the Azerbaijani
Public TV on 28 September, the ambassador said: "Let them have the
resolutions implemented. Why do not they do this? They would have
them implemented, if they wanted. Moreover, there are a lot of
resolutions. They are not being implemented. The UN still has a
problem, i.e. great powers do not allow the UN to work effectively."
The ambassador praised the current level of Iranian-Azeri ties.
"Our ties are very good and are developing in the political,
economic, cultural and security spheres. We have agreements on
military cooperation and they are working," the ambassador said.
Soleymani said that ties would further develop during Mahmud
Ahmadinezhad's presidency.
Commenting on some forces' criticism of Iran for cooperation with
Armenia, the ambassador said that the level of Iran's relations with
Armenia was very low compared to those with Azerbaijan. He said Iran
always supported Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and helped
refugees and displaced persons.
