Yerevan's nonresponse to Iranian proposal to hold trilateral meeting
of Armenian, Azerbaijani and Iranian Foreign Ministers is conditioned
by Armenia's insistence to invite Karabakh representative to the
possible meeting, reliable political source told NEWS.am. Presumably
at the moment Tehran expects Baku's response to Yerevan proposal.
Earlier, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki put forward
an initiative to mediate between Armenia and Azerbaijan on Karabakh
peace process, expressing an intention to hold trilateral meeting of
FMs in Tehran.
According to Mottaki, Azerbaijan already consented to the proposal.
"We have handed our proposals to Armenian and Azerbaijani sides. Baku
accepted them, whereas Yerevan is yet silent," Iranian FM stated.
February 19, Iranian Ambassador to RA Seyed Ali Saghaeyan said that
Iran is the only country having common border with Nagorno-Karabakh,
thereby recognizing liberated territories part of NKR. Under the NKR
constitution, security area around Karabakh is a part of the republic.
Asked about his stance on possible deployment of Russian and U.S.
peacekeepers on border with Iran as a result of Karabakh conflict
settlement, Ambassador replied: "Considering that Iran is the only
country with common border with Karabakh, we have a clear stand on
deployment of peacekeeping forces."
