Reminder
In 2020, as a result of the Second Karabakh War, Azerbaijan regained control of part of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
According to the agreement of November 10 of the same year (between Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia), the fighting was stopped, and Russian peacekeepers were deployed in the Lachin corridor and on the line of contact in Karabakh.
Much of the former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region is said to be under the control of an unrecognized entity and Russian peacekeepers.
Last year, the parties signed two more statements on the restoration of economic and transport ties in the region.
The Karabakh conflict began in 1988.
Prior to the 1994 ceasefire agreement, the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan and 7 adjacent regions were occupied.
