/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Azeri politicians' statements about their
country's role in the region sometimes sound exotic enough," Caucasus
Institute Director Alexander Iskandaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net
correspondent. Iran's influence upon Azerbaijan is not so strong as
commented by media. The thing is that Baku exaggerates its role for
Israel, claiming that 20% of Israel's gas supply comes from Azerbaijan.
Azeri political scientist Vafa Guluzade had previously announced that
his country was still under Iran's strong influence. "This is why
we don't have an embassy in Israel and Azerbaijani leadership has
not so far visited Tel Aviv. Nonetheless, I have to say that 20%
of oil supplied to Israel is Azerbaijani oil," Guluzede reported
Azerbaijani media.
