Tehran's attitude to Armenian states won't undergo serious changes

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Iran is a country with developed political traditions. The political vector in such countries depends on the national mentality and presence of negative or positive complementarity towards a foreign partner but not on politicians," political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net



"Proceeding from this, we can be sure that irrespective of the party-winner Tehran's attitude to the Armenian states will not undergo serious changes. Our neighborly relations outlived not only centuries but also states which emerged in our region from time to time," he said.
