“La pace, la sicurezza e la stabilità regionali non sono solo una preferenza, ma un pilastro della nostra sicurezza nazionale. Qualsiasi minaccia da Nord, Sud, Est o Ovest all’integrità territoriale dei nostri vicini o alla ridefinizione dei confini è totalmente inaccettabile e una linea rossa per l’Iran”. – Iran FM Seyed Abbas Araghchi

A reminder of the alleged recent rens8on between Iran and Russia on the topic of the “corridor” https://www.azatutyun.am/a/33108409.html and ofc the recent excellent posts by u/lmsoa941
something is brewing. Iran and US have the unprecedented chance to partner on this matter. It’s up to our diplomates to lead them to that path.
With Trump hopefully out of the picture soon, Armenia desperately needs Iran to have closer ties to the west and EU. Israel will try all it can to hinder efforts, like it always does, but hopefully it can be done while Russia and Iran seemingly have different priorities regarding the Caucas’.
Noticeably, Iran is trying to navigate this as smoothly as possible by blaming everything happening on Russia. And not Azerbaijan.
Since it might be afraid to lose Azerbaijan again. And considers Russia the main instigator. Since Azerbaijan alone will not be able to do anything. And Turkey will not interfere directly without losing its ties with Iran. As well as being a target of a smear campaign that would expose them for still exporting everything to Israel.
And even collaborating with Turkey to catch Palestinian operatives.
Russia is never going to give Iran any really benefits. It’s a traitor, we saw how easily they turned their backs on Armenia, they deactivated defense systems in Syria so Israel could attack, they never sold the promised jet fighter aircraft to Iran as promised
