Tension in the Azerbaijani-Iranian relations has continued to increase recently. Iran has closed the border with Azerbaijan blocking the way of trucks and passenger cars coming from Azerbaijan.
Reportedly, many cars have been blocked at Julfa checkpoint in Nakhijevan. The frontiers don’t allow them to enter the country.
At the same time, the Azerbaijani FM has commented on the news on recalling the Iranian ambassador from Baku saying that the ambassador was recalled to Tehran for consultations. It was reported earlier the ambassador was recalled because of the Eurovision Song contest in Azerbaijan and because of authorizing the parade of homosexuals.
