Azerbaijan was offended, but Tehran was offended.
Iran protested Azerbaijan's decision to ban entry into the country of 14 Iranian citizens known for their anti-Azerbaijani statements.
According to the Iranian media, the spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Ismail Baka'i, said today in a briefing that the ambassador of Azerbaijan in Tehran visited the Iranian Foreign Ministry, where the position of the Iranian side was brought to his attention.
According to Bekai, Tehran has openly expressed its protest and is ready to take additional steps it deems necessary, and to report them publicly.
A representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry called the decision of the Azerbaijani side "unfriendly". He also expressed dissatisfaction with the use of the term "persona non grata" in relation to these people.
We will remind you that on November 3, the APA agency reported that 14 Iranian citizens were declared as undesirable persons in Azerbaijan and they are not allowed to enter the country. Among them are current and former members of the Iranian parliament, religious figures and media representatives.
As the agency noted, these people made statements against the country, people and leadership of Azerbaijan, incited religious hatred and called for a violent change of power.
