"Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's representative in Azerbaijan has backed the country against Armenia, in a move that contradicts with Iran's official stance on the conflict between the two former Soviet nations.
In a video statement published by the Iranian Embassy in Baku, Ojaq Nejad Agha said Iran stands with Azerbaijan over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
"Karabakh belongs to Azerbaijan… occupiers (Armenia) are aggressors," the envoy said in the statement given in Azeri language.
He maintained that Iran "has and will stand by Azerbaijan".
The envoy's statement was in a clear contrast with Iran's official stance on the conflict as the government of Hassan Rouhani has stopped short of backing any side over the region.
Observers believe that the statement by Khamenei's envoy could lead to a shift in Iran's official position regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict."
