i would love to hear your opinion on how would we loose badly??
Armenia did let Iran to invest heavily in their infrastructures and we gain billions of dollars from them. what is the benefit of azarbaijan to us??
lol so we should reach out to azarbaijan?? we actually did in the first stages of war with armenia when they were marching toward garabagh. we engage with armenia militarily in a short period too. but the azarbaijanis refused our assisting and put on the pan turkism rhetoric and claimed north-western region of Iran belongs to newly formed AZ. then they allied with israel which if you do not know did operations against us from AZ soil...
so on one side we have armenia which is a economic partner, on the other hand we have a hostile nation which claims our land, harbors israel and will possibly invite US/NATO to region. i ask you, which one would you choose if you were in Iran's shoes??
