The Iranian army was not allowed to enter Zangezur.

Despite the earlier information that Yerevan and Tehran reached an agreement on the deployment of Iranian troops in Zangezur, which should become a powerful opposition to Azerbaijan and Turkey, the Russian side did not allow the Iranian army to enter the region. Ostensibly, this is due to the dissatisfaction of Turkey.

According to Azerbaijani media, Iran plans to build a military base in Zangezur to protect Armenia from a possible attack, as well as to control its neighbors - Turkey and Azerbaijan.

“Fakhraddin Abbaspur proposes to urgently start negotiations with Yerevan on the creation of an Iranian military base in Zangezur, which will protect the territorial integrity of Armenia. And he immediately warns readers that the "smart" cities and villages that Baku plans to build on the liberated lands will in fact be ... electronic monitoring stations for Iran for the Zionists and their henchmen. Another Iranian newspaper writes that the Zangezur corridor will be handed over (apparently, Armenia and Russia) to Turkey, Azerbaijan and Israel to create a military foothold for an attack on Iran. ", - reports the publication "Haqqin".

Despite the fact that this information has not received any confirmation, there is information that Russia prevented the appearance of the Iranian army in Zangezur.

"According to unconfirmed reports, it is reported that Russia allegedly rejected Iran's request to send troops to Zangezur because of" Turkey's discontent ", - international Iranian journalist Hayal Muazzin cites the data.

How reliable this information is is unknown. Earlier it was reported that Armenia intends to provide Iran with the opportunity to build a large military base after that. how the Russian side refused to build a similar facility in this region.
