I'm not sure Azure has been available for Iranian IPs for the past few years or ever, feel free to Google "Azure Blocked Iran" though - plenty of petitions.

AWS and Azure prevent Iran-based users from having an account, but if you have an account, you can exchange traffic with Iranian IPs. GCP blocks traffic to/from Iranian IPs for all users. It sounded to me like GP was referring to the latter type of blocking.
