Baku's position in response to the drone attacks on Nakhchivan includes political, diplomatic, and military measures, according to Azerbaijani Ambassador to Russia Rahman Mustafayev.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," on March 5, four people were injured in a drone attack on the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. The head of Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry demanded an explanation from Iran, and a member of parliament called on the neighboring country to apologize for the drone attack. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev called the attack a "deliberate terrorist attack by Iran," and the Azerbaijani army was put on alert. On the evening of March 6, the Azerbaijani State Security Service reported on the thwarting of several terrorist attacks, which were allegedly planned by Iranian intelligence services. The Baku-Ceyhan oil pipeline and the Israeli Embassy in Azerbaijan were named as the targets of the attacks.

Azerbaijan's Ambassador to the Russian Federation, Rahman Mustafayev, stated that Baku's position in response to the incident in Nakhchivan includes "political, diplomatic, and military measures," Izvestia reported today.

According to Mustafayev, Baku considers the incident "an unjustifiable terrorist act against the country." He added that Iranian officials should, first and foremost, provide an explanation, apologize, and prosecute those who "committed this terrorist act."

Iran's Ambassador to Azerbaijan, Mujtaba Demirchilu, avoided answering questions about the UAV attack in an interview with Baku TV. He said he is not a military officer and refrains from commenting on military and technical matters. "When a problem arises between two countries, I try to resolve it as quickly as possible," the publication quotes him as saying.

Journalist Turan Ibrahimov stated that, according to information released by the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense, the attack was carried out by Arash-2 drones. Demirchilu responded that, according to information he received from the Azerbaijani side, the drones were Shahed drones.

The ambassador also stated that Iran officially states that all its actions are defensive in nature. "These attacks are not directed against the national sovereignty or territorial integrity of other states. The strikes were carried out only on military bases. I want to say that if the attack on Iran had not occurred, the country, naturally, would not have carried out retaliatory strikes in self-defense. If military aggression against Iran ceases, Iran will also cease its strikes," the ambassador added.

Regarding the consequences, according to Demircilu, appropriate decisions will be made and the necessary work will be carried out based on the information received.
