- Iran threatens Caucasus corridor announced on Friday
- Analysts say unclear how Tehran could block it
- Diplomat says final peace deal faces just one obstacle
- Armenia must amend its constitution, he says
- Armenia PM has called for vote on the change
DUBAI/MOSCOW, Aug 9 (Reuters) - Iran threatened on Saturday to block a corridor planned in the Caucasus under a regional deal sponsored by U.S. President Donald Trump, Iranian media reported, raising a new question mark over a peace plan hailed as a strategically important shift.
A top Azerbaijani diplomat said earlier that the plan, announced by Trump on Friday, was just one step from a final peace deal between his country and Armenia, which reiterated its support for the plan.
Iran will have professional American security forces at its border! Under the indirect command of Trump they will bring freedom, democracy and peace to Iran! Irans evil terrorist regime will be eradicated and become a pro-Trump and pro-Netanjahu government in the interest of the American democracy and electorate. The West will win and Iranians will finally have freedom of speech!
Points for keeping a straight face.
I am sure some American out there has that opinion to be honest (Steve Bannon is one of them I guess).
