Iranian MP deplores Russia’s paradoxical policies amid Zangezur corridor controversy
Iran’s diplomacy will give a strong response to the Russian president’s recent stances in support of the Zangezur corridor, the MP added, stressing that Iran’s national interests are its red line that cannot be crossed with any threat.
Maleki slammed Russia’s double standards on regional issues and its push for the creation of Zangezur corridor as a “stab in the back” that is totally unacceptable to Iran.
Highlighting Iran’s undeniable role in the creation of regional security and the vulnerability of negotiations among the neighboring countries without Iran’s participation, the lawmaker said Tehran will show a “decisive reaction” if it is marginalized or a threat is posed to its boundaries.
Russia received a firm response from Iran after its stance on the trio Iranian islands in the Persian Gulf, but is repeating the same behavior in regard to the Zangezur corridor, Maleki said.
Iranian officials have time and again expressed opposition to any change in the international boundaries or the geopolitics of the region.
