Iran is doubtful whether peacekeepers should be deployed in
Nagorno-Karabakh, said Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani.
`Iran defined two positions on the Karabakh issue. The first is
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, the second - peaceful resolution
of the conflict. Iran is supportive of a settlement in the context of
regional negotiations. Help from external forces does not seem
plausible,' he told journalists in Baku.
He stressed that Azerbaijan initially preferred to resolve the issue
through international organizations, Salamnews reports.
`However, if Azerbaijan turns to us, the Iranian government is always
ready to mediate and help in resolving the conflict,' Larijani said
adding that Iran has always supported Azerbaijan in the Organization
of Islamic Cooperation and other international agenices.
