During a meeting with members of an Azeri nationalistic alliance, representative of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei stated that Nagorno Karabakh “should be returned to Azerbaijan”, according to Salamnews.org.
“This is Iran’s official position,” Muhammad Mujtahid Shabistari said, adding that Iran “is ready to support the Muslim population of Nagorno Karabakh.”
“Karabakh, as Palestine, is a part of Islamic land,” he said. “We should cultivate patriotism across the entire Muslim world, especially in Shiite Iran and Azerbaijan.”
