Tehran's Caucasus Gambit: Hypocrisy and Threats

Iran's hypocrisy and threats against Azerbaijan: Zangezur corridor, Caucasus gambit, and new geopolitical realities.

Iran has launched a new offensive against the South Caucasus, especially Azerbaijan, using diplomatic and media channels. The military-political elite can't digest the new realities.

The mullah regime repeats the old line: "We will not allow changes in geopolitical borders." What is the real hypocrisy behind these statements?

Former ambassador Mousavi's claim "The Caucasus is our home" is pure geopolitical egoism. Wasn't it Iran's home when Azerbaijani lands were occupied for 30 years?

Tehran supplied fuel and logistics to Armenia during the occupation, yet now plays the peacekeeper. The Zangezur corridor project has alarmed Tehran.

Iran's media threats demand full obedience from Armenia, while Iran embraces Armenia's ties with the West. This hypocritical stance targets only Azerbaijan.

This is historical jealousy. Tehran's internal weakness drives it to lash out at neighbors.

But they forget: today's Baku is a regional power center. Strong army, Turkey's alliance, and determined leadership. Threats won't deter Azerbaijan.

Tehran must understand: the Caucasus' future is built on sovereignty, not imperial ambitions.
