Nagorno-Karabakh War

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said his country is ready to open a consulate in Shusha, a city that Azerbaijan took from Armenian forces in a war in 2020.

Erdogan made the comment during a visit to Azerbaijan at the start of his third term in office following presidential elections last month.

Armenia is ready to recognize the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, which includes Nagorno-Karabakh, but on the condition that the security of the Armenian population is guaranteed. This was announced at a press conference on Monday by the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan. If this happens, it will be a historic decision that will end the decades-long conflict in the Caucasus.

Turkish defense company Baykar Technology and Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry have signed a goodwill protocol for the joint production of unmanned aerial vehicle systems.

Baykar General Manager Haluk Bayraktar and Azerbaijan Deputy Defense Minister Agil Gurbanov on April 27 attended the ceremony and signed the protocol for the production of unmanned aerial vehicle systems.

Russia has blamed Armenia for the collapse of peace talks with Azerbaijan over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, which are being conducted under its auspices.

This is another sign of friction between the allies Moscow and Yerevan, writes "Reuters".

Aram Hamparian, the Executive Director of the Armenian National Committee, joins Thanos Davelis to discuss Azerbaijan's blockade of Nagorno Karabakh, or Artsakh, and the humanitarian crisis unfolding over the last weeks, and look at what steps the US should take to support the people of Nagorno Karabakh and hold Baku accountable.

Among other things, he invited the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikola Pashinyan to hold a meeting in Russia.
Putin said that Russia has always sincerely sought to resolve every conflict, including Nagorno-Karabakh.
He invited all the leaders of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) to come to St. Petersburg before 2023.

Over the past few months, the situation in the South Caucasus region has begun to change rapidly. Great powers, countries of Asia and Europe, express their desire to strengthen and develop relations with Azerbaijan. The reliability and desire of Baku to develop a peace agenda in the region has attracted wide attention.

Armenia's "violation" of the agreement, reached after 44 days of conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, is unacceptable for Türkiye, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said on Sept. 14.

However, due to the overall "tumbling" of the international scene after Russia started the war in Ukraine, as a result of which universal sanctions were imposed on it, the interests of other countries are now not far from Armenia and Azerbaijan.
