YEREVAN. - Iranian Azeris consider themselves Iranians, Majles member
Karen Khanlarian said.
"Pan-Turkic trends have not been supported in Iran for at least recent
one hundred years," he said during the Wednesday press conference
in Yerevan.
He found it difficult to speak about ethnic relations between the
Iranian Azeris and modern residents of Azerbaijan and Turkey. The MP
stressed that residents of West and East Azerbaijan provinces perceive
themselves residents of Iran, just as citizens of other provinces.
