TEHRAN ACCUSES AZERI MASS MEDIA OF WRONG PRESENTATION OF SITUATION IN IRAN

The Iranian embassy in Baku accused Azeri mass media of the attempt to give a wrong idea about Iran. As reported by “CenterAn” agency according to the embassy statement, “some Azeri TV channels use old video materials in order to create by means of them the atmosphere of the social crisis and mass disturbances as if reigning in Iran at the moment”. It should be noted that the Azeri sources have been actively discussing the so-called “Iranian threat” in their republic recently and also publish materials about the idea of locating the US military subdivisions in their country, which is supported by the Azerbaijanians.
