The State Committee for Work with Diaspora has released the statement of the Azerbaijanis of the world regarding the terrorist attack against the embassy of our country in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

According to the information given to APA by the State Committee, the statement reads:

"We, Azerbaijanis living in foreign countries, express our deep sadness that one Azerbaijani was killed and two others were injured as a result of an armed attack on the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Iran on January 27 at 8:30 am Baku time.

Azerbaijanis of the world consider the incident to be a terrorist act organized by Iran's special services, each of our compatriots curses the perpetrators of this treacherous attack and bloody crimes, and declares that he does not believe in the false information spread to distract attention.

The bloody event that happened does not fit into logic and humanity.


The fact that 40 million of our compatriots live in South Azerbaijan, their rights are continuously violated, and there is no diplomatic representation in Iran, as well as a guarantee of the inviolability of any person, worries us.

We direct the attention of the world community to the region and call for a fight against the commission of crimes against humanity.

By bringing the information about the terrorist act that hinders peace and stability in the region to the attention of the UN, the European Union, the Council of Europe and their institutions, and other competent international and regional organizations, we call on them to take urgent measures at the legal and political level to prevent the Iranian special services from committing such serious criminal acts. .

Let us inform you that we are witnesses of Iran and Armenia continuously committing illegal acts within the borders of Azerbaijan.

So, recently, 27 Iranian citizens used the Lachin road to go to the separatists in the Karabakh territory with uncertain goals, so far Armenia and Iran have not made any statement about this.

We honor the memory of those who died as a result of the terrorist act, condemn the same position of the Islamic Republic of Iran against Azerbaijan, which is constantly faced with various acts of terrorism by Armenia, and bring to justice those responsible for the crimes against peace and humanity in the region as soon as possible. we demand a fair position from the international community".
