Iran recalls Azerbaijan envoy for talks following Peres visit
By Reuters
Tags: Iran, Azerbaijan, Israel News 

Iran has recalled its ambassador to Azerbaijan for consultations after a visit by President Shimon Peres to the Islamic Republic's northwestern
neighbor, an Iranian news agency reported on Monday.

Quoting an informed source, ISNA said the envoy was recalled to Tehran after Peres' visit to Azerbaijan on June 28 and "threats" which it said the Israeli ambassador in Baku had voiced against Iran, without elaborating.

The semi-official Fars News Agency carried a similar report.

Iran does not recognize Israel, which it refers to as the "Zionist regime". Israel has not ruled out military action if diplomatic efforts fail to resolve Tehran's nuclear row with the West. Tehran says its nuclear work is peaceful.

On June 21, Peres, commenting on post-election unrest in Iran, said he hoped the current Iranian government would disappear.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who officially won the disputed June 12 election, has sparked outrage in the West by questioning the Holocaust and predicting the imminent demise of Israel.
