President Rouhani Warns against Transfer of Terrorists from Syria to Karabakh -FarsNews Agency

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani warned Azerbaijan and Armenia against the transfer of terrorists from Syria to the Nagorno-Karabakh region near the border with Iran.


“Iran does not allow some parties to transfer the terrorists that we have fought for long years in Syria and annihilated them to our bordering areas. This is unacceptable and we have clearly said it to the officials of the neighboring states,” Rouhani said, addressing a cabinet meeting in Tehran on Wednesday.

He underlined that protection of security at Iran's bordering areas is a priority, adding that aggression against these regions is not acceptable and Iran has asked Azerbaijan and Armenia to take heed and give special care to this point.

President Rouhani also warned against turning the Azerbaijan-Armenia war into a regional war, saying that the countries which add fuel to this fire should know that continued war will benefit no one and the war should end via political means.

“Occupation and war are not acceptable to us and we hope that stability will revive in this region through efforts,” he added.

In relevant remarks on Tuesday, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami said that the lives of citizens living on the borders are very important, assuring the conflicting sides in Karabakh of Tehran’s response if they continue violating Iranian border.
