Tell the truth. In 1991-92 ethnic Armenians killed around 30,000 Azerbaijanis and expelled 1 million Azeri from Nagarno-Karabakhp and the surrounding area. About 60000 Armenians are living in Azerbizjan with equal rights but no Azeri could not able to live in Armenia.
At the Russian Czar's orders in 1828 an Armenian province was established in the territory of the occupied Azerbaijani Khanates (Irevan and Nakhichevan). This was done for the purpose of instituting a state between the two beligerent parties, in the Ottoman Empire's backyard, and driving a wedge among Turkic-speaking nations.
Once the Gulistan Treaty of 1813 and Turkmenchay Treaty of 1828 were signed, concerning the distribution of the Azerbaijani territories between Iran and Russia, the plan of establishing an «Armenian state» was launched with a view to creating a buffer zone in Azerbaijan's ancient lands. 300 years before that, while pondering the outlines of the future empire, the Russian emperor Peter the First said to the emissaries he sent southwards: «We should endeavour to gather them (the Armenians) and bring them forth to our lands so that they be a stronghold for Russia».
To this end, up to 300 thousand Armenians were relocated from Iran and Turkey to Azerbaijan in the first half of the 19th century, and settled in Irevan (presently Yerevan), Nagorno Garabagh, Nakhichevan, Zangezur, Daralayaz, Ordubad, Vedibasar and other areas.
However despite the relocation of the Armenians to Azerbaijani lands, the Azerbaijanis still prevailed over the Armenians in terms of numbers. For instance, in 1886, out of the 326 villages in the region of Zangezur, province of Ganja, only 81 was Armenian. 66 percent of the population in the Irevan region were Azerbaijanis, while Armenians only accounted for 34 percent. In order to make the Armenians constitute the majority in these regions, a genocide policy was launched against the Azerbaijanis, with the Armenians secretly armed by the Czar Russia, and forming militia squads.
I remember when Trump welcomed the Turkish president like a Hero.
What is going on .
I hope that Armenians will burn all the bridges between Azerbaijan and will build a huge wall at the border, and there will be no future trades between these two countries!
If Azerbaijan recognizes the "Armenian genocide", we will recognize Azerbaijan's sovereignty over Artsakh. Otherwise, it will be a territorial exchange, and Nakhchivan will belong to Armenia.
I like the fact that Azerbaijan won, but you get a thumbs down since you're a liberal news
The war between Karabkh and Azerbaijan? It sounds as stupid as war between New York and the US. Karabakh is the territory of Azerbaijan and from now on every single state and gov news should officially recognize it as it is. The justice prevailed.
ttt
I am glad the war is over, EVERY war that is over is cause for rejoycing. Stop fighting guys.
Very good! Now that the distracting issue of “Nagorno-Karabakh” has finally been resolved in the interests of the USA and Great Britain, both Azerbaijan and Armenia can finally become EU and NATO members. The encirclement of Russia can finally move forward
The few Armenians who died were a necessary sacrifice and their relatives should not cry.
This is about something more important things than the individual fates of a few Armenians, namely the necessary destruction of Russia.
The supremacy of the West in the world must be maintained,
For this we need access to Russia's raw materials.
occupiers are finally leaving
врут как всегда это не нация а отброски человечества
These are Armenian lands. The fact that Stalin gave a piece of Armenia to Azarbeijan means nothing. The war in 93 was justified because they were massacaring Armenians in Azarbeijan in 1988, before the USSR collapsed. Azeris are trying to revise history, but they don't know that history is on our side. These lands will be reclaimed, and they will spill much blood for their sins.
Real owners are back
Poor people… Azerbaijan is strictly Islam controlled
Aressted guy is Putin's oligarch – Ruben Vardanian. He made a fortune in Russia and financed Putin's strategic projects such as Skolkovo (Putin hoped that this can be a new Silicon Valley). Kremlin send Vardanian to Karabakh to control the region.
Ecceb edirik!! Cehennem olsunlar!!!! Karabakh iz Azerbaycan 🇦🇿 ❤
baku bizimdir 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
There's no ethnic cleansing here in Karabagh. Stop lying.
ИСПАНСКИЙ СТЫД ЗА ТАКИЕ РЕПОРТАЖИ. Мы понимаем, в мире идет война между МУСУЛЬМАНАМИ И ХРИСТЯНАМИ. Может быть сегодня у вас есть ресурсы которые так однобоко можете рассказать о том, что на самом деле все ФЕЙК. Где репортаж о миллионах Азербайджанцах, которые голые босые покинули свои дома, их убивали , сжигали и отрезали головы, вы продажные журналисты об этом молчите, так как жизнь мусульманина для вас не имеет ценности. Принцип БУМЕРАНГА ещё ни кто не отменял, все вернется и вы все будете отвечать перед ВЫСЕВЫШНЕМ. ПОЗОР ВАМ ВСЕМ.
😢😢😢
The harm Armanians have caused to the world's with the Kardashians alone, deserve punishment!
