General Bagheri made the remarks in a meeting with Armen Grigoryan, the secretary of the National Security Council of Armenia.
Saying that the developments in the South Caucasus affect the security of the region, General Bagheri stressed that the continuation of tension in this region is not in the interest of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and other countries in the region.
He also called for taking measures to resolve disputes and tensions in that region.
Expressing Iran's readiness to dispatch observers to the borders of Armenia and Azerbaijan, the Iranian military official emphasized that there should not be any aggressive goal or intention behind the improvement of the defense capabilities of any country.
"Peace and tranquility in the region are in the interest of all countries, and security in the region must be ensured by the countries of the region, and the presence of extra-regional forces is contrary to the peace of the region," he further underlined.
Referring to the recent US military exercise in Armenia, General Bagheri said that the presence of extra-regional forces will cause instability.
Grigoryan, for his part, presented a report on the latest developments in the Caucasus region.
