He also spoke about the Azerbaijani poets, who were introduced as spies: “I can say that the government of Azerbaijan has a right to express its opinion on this issue. Iran has pardoned these two young poets because of Islam and neighborhood factors. We don’t expect anything for our step. But we are concerned of the state of our prisoners there.”

Salehi added that the main goal of Iran in foreign policy is to develop the Iran-Azerbaijan relations: “Iran is the most reliable friend of Azerbaijan. We have many common aspects with this country. That’s why we want the relations between the two countries to develop at a high level.”
