Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Iran recently opened a new consulate in southern Armenia and conducted military drills on its border with Azerbaijan.
52% : In particular, Ankara and Baku want an economic corridor between Azerbaijan and its Nakhchivan exclave which is wedged between Armenia, Türkiye, and Iran.
52% : Iran hopes to maintain the Iran-Armenia-Georgia trade corridor parallel to the North-South Iran-Azerbaijan-Russia one.
51% : From Dr. Vali Kaleji, a Tehran-based expert on Central Asia and Caucasian Studies:Iran sees the creation of the Zangezur corridor as a matter beyond the access of the Republic of Azerbaijan to Nakhchivan exclave and believes that this corridor will provide direct military access for Türkiye as a NATO member in the Caucasus and west of the Caspian Sea.
50% : Both India and Iran want to maintain close ties with Armenia and have it play a key role in connecting the Persian Gulf to the Black Sea and keep Türkiye from accumulating too much power in the region.
49% : The drills come as Iran has been stepping up its diplomatic warnings to Baku about Azerbaijan's intentions for a new transport link connecting Azerbaijan's exclave of Nakhchivan with the Azerbaijani mainland, a route that Baku calls the "Zangezur corridor."
47% : Türkiye and Israel just agreed to enhance "formal defense ties" as well as Tehran and Anakra are in direct competition for influence in the South Caucuses.
46% : Both India and Iran are worried that their north-south trade routes would be severed should Türkiye and Azerbaijan enact their dream of the Zangezur Corridor.
45% : At stake in the conflict isn't just Russian influence in the Caucuses and natural gas for the EU, but key north-south and east-west trade routes that affect countries such as Iran, India, and China.
44% :"Iran will not permit the blockage of its connection route with Armenia, and in order to secure that objective the Islamic Republic of Iran also launched a wargame in that region," Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said in an October 19 interview with the IRNA news agency.
43% : The route would pass along Armenia's border with Iran, with uncertain consequences for Armenia-Iran commerce.
38% : In addition, Iran is deeply concerned about Israel's presence near its north-western border, given the close ties between Israel and the Republic of Azerbaijan, which developed greatly during the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War.
36% : Iran is also worried about Türkiye and Israel strengthening on its northwestern border.
35% : If Azerbaijan and Türkiye have a continuous land border - with no Armenian territory in between - this will further weaken the hand of Iran.
35% : That's a bit rich coming from the US, as it would almost certainly watch both Armenia and Azerbaijan reduced to ruins if it meant advancing its goals against Russia, Iran, or helps apply pressure on Türkiye.
