Iran's Ambassador to Azerbaijan, Abbas Mousavi, has been reportedly dismissed from his role, as stated by the IRGC-affiliated Tasnim news agency.
Yes, the West prefers to act through the hands of Armenia. The very Armenia that eagerly took on and continues to take on the role of an instrument in someone else's game. Often, simultaneously for two opposing camps.
A lot has been said in recent days about the upcoming meeting between Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Brussels on April 5, which will apparently be joined by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

Azerbaijan’s recent presidential elections reveal a great amount about the country’s current political outlook. While the timing of the vote may be related to potential internal reforms, a possible peace agreement with Armenia remains the country’s top priority on the global stage.
