Speaking in a telephone conversation, Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Bagheri and Azeri Minister of Defence Zakir Asker Oghlu Hasanov emphasized the development of bilateral defense and military relations and cooperation between the two sides.
"The level of cooperation, communication, and interaction between the armed forces of the two countries is progressing in all fields, and we believe that the armed forces can strengthen friendship and brotherhood between the two countries," General Bagheri said.
Expressing the readiness of the Iranian armed forces in the joint military commission of Baku, Bagheri said, "Creating security and peace in common borders is only possible with empathy and unity between neighboring countries, and the presence of foreigners in the region will cause tension and conflict."
