Ahmadinejad interrupted visit to Armenia and returned to Tehran

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad interrupted his formal visit to Armenia and returned to Tehran. Informal sources said the schedule was changed over unforeseeable consequences in Iran.

October 23, Mr Ahmadinejad was expected to attend the Memorial Complex to Armenian Genocide victims and Blue Mosque in Yerevan. He was also scheduled to address the RA National Assembly.

“Today’s program was cancelled and the Iranian leader is departing for Tehran,” the RA President’s press office reported.
