“The opening of the Consulate General of Armenia in Tabriz is a political step. This is a certain message for us,” said Farid Shafiyev, Chairman of the Center of Analysis of International Relations (AIR Center) at a press conference on AIR Center’s activities for 2023, APA reports.

Mr. Shafiyev does not think that this decision will create any problems for Azerbaijanis living in Iran: “Iran, as a sovereign country, can establish some relations with Armenia. We have been wanting to create a cultural center in Tabriz for years, this issue is not resolved, but whatever happens, Armenia’s proposals are quickly resolved.”
