YEREVAN, July 26 - Sputnik. Iranian Ambassador Mehdi Sobhani, following the Armenian Defense Ministry, also denied information in the media about a secret arms deal between Yerevan and Tehran for $500 million.
Earlier this was reported by Iran International, noting that the Armenian side allegedly buys drones and air defense systems.
In his comments to Mehr News Agency, the diplomat called these publications an attempt to harm “Iran's friendly relations with the countries of the region.”
He said such reports are spread by unreliable media outlets, which have often become a source of fake news and biased analysis about the Islamic republic.
Sobhani noted that Iran supports the establishment of peace and stability as well as economic development in the Caucasus region.
