Hello everyone from GZT! In today's episode of our 10/ON Iran series, we are with İRAM Iran Researcher Oral Toğa. On our agenda are Iran's South Caucasus Policy and Karabakh. Due to its strategic location, rich energy resources and the coexistence of various religious and ethnic groups, the South Caucasus is one of the battlefields of not only the countries of the region but also global powers. We will examine Iran's view of the South Caucasus, which has close connections with the region in history, politics, security, economy and many other issues, and its attitude towards the Karabakh issue from its beginning to the present day.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Iran tried to increase its influence in the region. While doing this, it did not neglect to establish close relations with Azerbaijan. Iran is the country in the region that shares the longest border and has the closest relations with Azerbaijan. There are common interests between the two countries in many areas such as historical and cultural ties, energy and trade cooperation, and regional security. Iran sees Azerbaijan as an important partner in the region. Tehran, which has established close relations with Armenia, wants to continue its commercial activities in the region by keeping its borders open with Armenia. At the same time, Armenia's close relations with Russia also affect Iran's regional policies. Not only that, it also cooperates economically with Georgia, one of the regional actors. Iran sees Georgia as a gateway to Europe via the Caucasus. Cooperation is developing between the two countries in the fields of energy, trade and transportation.
