Azerbaijan and Armenia Conflict

Azerbaijan and Armenia have conflict over the border region of Nagorno-Karabakh since the 1980s.

The 6-year war between Azerbaijan and Armenia, two former states that gained independence from the Soviet Union, ended in 1994.

As a result of the war, Armenia occupied a large part of Nagorno-Karabakh, but in 2020, Azerbaijan withdrew some of it again.

Then in October 2023, an operation was launched by Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh once again, due to which the separatists of Nagorno-Karabakh were forced to disarm, and they announced the dissolution of the government and annexation with Azerbaijan.

In addition, Cambodia formally nominated US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in brokering a ceasefire with Thailand.
