Political scientist: Who gave Baku the right to interfere in relations between Armenia and Iran?

ArmInfo. Who gave Baku the right to interfere in relations between Armenia and Iran? Political scientist Tatevik Hayrapetyan posed this question on her X page, commenting on Azerbaijan's attacks on the naming of a hall in the Blue Mosque in Yerevan after Yeghishe Charents.

As Hayrapetyan noted, the presentation of the Armenian translation of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh in Yerevan, attended by the Iranian Vice President, included the naming of a ceremonial hall in the Blue Mosque after the Armenian poet Yeghishe Charents.

"A cultural event celebrating the historical ties between the two peoples was enough to provoke an aggressive reaction from Baku." The Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Caucasus accused Armenia of distorting the historical identity of the Blue Mosque, proclaiming it part of "Azerbaijan's heritage." But this goes far beyond historical falsifications. Baku is attempting to dictate how Armenia and Iran conduct cultural, religious, and humanitarian relations on Armenian soil. Has Azerbaijan appointed itself a regional overseer, deciding what Armenia can do and with whom? The contradiction is striking: Baku claims to protect religious heritage, while simultaneously restricting religious freedoms, appropriating or destroying Armenian Christian heritage in Armenia and Artsakh. The problem is not religion. This is the selective use of religious identity as a political tool. Yerevan and Tehran resolve their bilateral affairs. Baku does not!" the political scientist noted.
