James Phillips, a US Senior Research Fellow for Middle Eastern Affairs at The Heritage Foundation, called on Azerbaijani authorities to keep away from the regime in Iran since it could be a threat for Azerbaijan, Turan reported.



He said in his interview with Turan, Iran backs all the terrorist and extreme organizations which carry out attacks in Turkey, Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Israel, Gaza and a number of other states.


“Azerbaijan shouldn’t forget how Azeris are persecuted in Iran. Ahmadinejad regime should be isolated and undergo sanctions unless it has stopped backing terrorists and persecuting its own people,” he said.
