The flight of a military aircraft for more than half an hour near the liberated territories of Azerbaijan is a provocation and unfriendly behavior towards Azerbaijan.
Ednews reports this was noted in the joint statement of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan.
"We would like to remind that last year the Iranian side also conducted large-scale military exercises along the Araz River near the borders of Azerbaijan.
We strongly condemn the Iranian side for such a provocative step, urge them to provide an appropriate explanation and refrain from such confrontational steps in the future.
On March 11, Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the Republic of Azerbaijan Seyyed Abbas Mousavi was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan and was presented with a corresponding note of protest," noted in the statement.
