The ruling New Azerbaijan Party condemned anti-Azerbaijani propaganda
made by the First Iranian TV Channel.
Media representatives in Iran must not act against the official
position of their country repeatedly voiced by the Iranian leadership,
Deputy Chairman of the party Ali Akhmedov told Trend.
The negative statements towards Azerbaijan were made at the first
Iranian TV channel.
Nagorno-Karabakh was represented as an independent state.
Azerbaijan does not interfere in the internal affairs of other
countries and urges other countries to do the same.
"We are ready to further develop and expand multilateral relations
with Iran based on mutual respect and national priorities," he said.
He called on Iran's official bodies to investigate these facts and
reveal the forces standing behind these materials.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the United
States - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.
