If Mahmud Agmadinejad quits powers, Armenia will face hard times,
said famous political scientist Tofik Abbasov.
According to him, weakening of conservative powers represented by
Mahmud Ahmadinejad creates the biggest concern in Armenia.
"If Ahmadinejad quits powers, it might lead to review of bilateral ties
between Iran and Armenia. Therefore, Armenia hopes that Ahmadinejad
will preserve his positions. Moreover, this is a guarantee that
existing bilateral relations will at least not weaken", said he.
As for the change in position of official Tehran on Nagorno Karabakh
conflict, in case the powers change, the political scientist said
the following:
"The thing is not that this is a neighbor state and Iran places its
investments into it and plans to raise the share of its economic
presence. The issue is that Iran has secret contacts with European
and US structures on Armenian issue for the limitless functioning of
a vitally important corridor for Armenia. US and European structures
are interested in the activeness of the Iranian-Armenian vector.
On Nagorno Karabakh conflict Iran urges both parties to settle the
problem by way of peaceful talks. But Iran continues to plan idea of
its mediation in the conflict resolution. Therefore, Iran is constantly
watching the peacekeeping process in the OSCE MG framework. In this
sense I do not think any cardinal review of position is possible in
Iran", concluded the political scientist.
