Asked by journalists on Saturday about the reports of violation of Iran’s soil amid the ongoing clashes between the Republic of Azerbaijan and Armenia, Khatibzadeh said: “The Islamic Republic of Iran is monitoring the movements at our country’s border areas seriously and with great sensitivity."
The spokesperson underlined that any violation of the Iranian soil by any warring side in the region would be “intolerable”, adding, “We seriously warn all sides to take the necessary precautions in this regard.”
The Iranian spokesman further reiterated the necessity of respecting the Republic of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity, observing the principle of protecting civilians, halting the clashes, and starting serious and scheduled negotiations.
Khatibzadeh finally expressed the Islamic Republic’s readiness to help achieve those objectives. (ILKHA)
