"No leader is as brave and accurate as President Aliyev, he openly expressed the oppression of the southern Azerbaijanis of Iran."

APA informs that this was said by national activist of South Azerbaijan, head of "Gunaz TV" Ahmet Obali at the event called "Iran in a new perspective".

Ahmet Obali said that Azerbaijan is located in a difficult region.

"President Ilham Aliyev has not declared a political war on Iran alone.

As long as we are oppressed, Iran will use our territory, Armenia will have a lot of support, and we will be a painful issue for Azerbaijan."

Ahmet Obali emphasized that President Ilham Aliyev did not interfere in Iran's affairs, he spoke about human rights, education in his mother tongue and security.

"The UN Charter recognizes the right of every nation to self-determination.

These conditions may not be captured again - Russia's situation, Azerbaijan-Turkey, Turkey-Israel, and Israel-Saudi Arabia rapprochement, Iran's isolation, and domestic upheavals.

Ahmet Obali said that Iran is trying.

He said that people living in South Azerbaijan are behind President Ilham Aliyev.

"We are not saying that Azerbaijan should endanger itself for our freedom.

I must admit that we were very worried after the first speech of President Ilham Aliyev.

For North Azerbaijan, we will remain calm for hundreds of years, its security is important for us.

We will not endanger Azerbaijan for our future.

As southerners, we are behind President Ilham Aliyev.

We are encouraged by the strengthening of Northern Azerbaijan.

We support and applaud the President", said Ahmet Obali.

He added that the President's last speech revolutionized ideas and created hopes.
