BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 27. We categorically
reject baseless and provocative claims voiced by Mehdi Sobhani,
Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the Republic of
Armenia on alleged use of the territory of Azerbaijan against Iran,
namely the incursion of Israeli drones from Azerbaijan, said Aykhan
Hajizada, Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of
Azerbaijan, Trend reports.
“These claims undermine the relations between Azerbaijan and Iran
that is based on mutual respect for each other's territorial
integrity and sovereignty, and non-interference in the domestic
affairs.
Against the backdrop of well-explained position by the President of
Azerbaijan during the recent phone-call with the Iranian President,
as well as by the Minister of Foreign Affairs during his phone-call
with his counterpart, we consider the claims of the Iranian
Ambassador as an open provocation.
The Republic of Azerbaijan categorically refutes allegations that
its airspace or territory was used by any state to conduct military
operations against the neighboring Islamic Republic of Iran or any
other country. Such claims are baseless and lack any credible
evidence,” the statement reads.
