But, the continuous flow of caravans of pilgrims and transfer of corpses to 'Atabat-e 'Aliat has created new problems in Iran - Ottoman relations.
The behaviors of Ottoman agents and officials with Iranian caravans of corpses transfer in the borders were always strict and annoying.

The authors tried to evaluate the effects of those problems on the political relationship between the two countries. |
