Azerbaijan's alleged silence on the issue of backing iran has sparked uproar throughout the Muslim world, particularly in countries like turkey and pakistan, in a significant development within the continuing Iran-Israel confrontation.
Azerbaijan chose to remain mute, leading to allegations of betrayal from iran, despite 21 Muslim-majority nations issuing a collective condemnation of Israel's actions, according to a recent article by tv9 Hindi. All the information you require regarding Azerbaijan's latest activity is provided here.
Given Azerbaijan's historical ties to important islamic countries like pakistan and turkey, this move seems unexpected. Analysts contend, however, that Baku's goals are mostly driven by strategic and financial concerns. The significant oil trade between azerbaijan and israel, which surpassed one million tonnes last year, is one of the main causes mentioned. Any overt backing for iran runs the risk of damaging this profitable alliance.
Azerbaijan reopens land border with Iran
On june 14, Baku temporarily reopened the border with iran to allow individuals fleeing Israeli bombardment to evacuate, and dozens of foreign nationals, mostly Russians, gathered at the Astara gate in Azerbaijan. According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, two of the 86 individuals on the first list of evacuees were minors. In a statement, it stated that the evacuation of Russian citizens was necessary due to Israeli attacks on Iran.
The Russian ministry cautioned its citizens to avoid going to israel or iran and advised them to stay away from risky areas and follow safety precautions. The ministry shared a still shot of the passengers on a coach and a video of the coach arriving at the checkpoint on its Telegram account.
According to the foreign ministry, the first wave of evacuees comprised individuals of Belarus, Serbia, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan, as well as the Russian Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra and film team led by well-known actor and director Fyodor Bondarchuk.
