Smoldering cannons and dying people, thousands forced to leave their own homes, this is the situation of Armenia-Azerbaijan
A fierce battle between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been going on since the past. Around 21 people died on the second day of this war. The battle is taking place over the disputed area Nagonre and Karabakh. The most fierce battle between the two countries after 2016 is also being told. Both sides allege that they are fiercely using artillery for the attack. Armenia alleges that Turkey is helping to attack Azerbaijan. Russia has also supported Azerbaijan on this issue and said that Turkey has sent about 4 thousand Syrian fighters to Azerbaijan to join this war. This is said by the Russian Ambassador in Armenia.
At the same time, Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Defense says that its army has captured many areas of high strategic importance. In view of this fight, experts say that both Turkey and Russia can jump into it. The aim of both of them to jump into this war will be to encourage this war. Let me tell you that while Russia is supporting Armenia on this disputed issue, Turkey is seen standing with Azerbaijan. On the other hand, because of this war, thousands of people have been forced to leave this area and move elsewhere.
This is how the fight started
The battle began in 1991 with the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region was then officially declared independent. So far, 30 thousand people have lost their lives in the battle of both countries and thousands of people have become homeless.
Nagorno-Karabakh Region
Spread over 4,400 sq km. 95 percent of the region’s population follows Armenian customs. By 1993, Armenia had not only taken control of Nagorno-Karabakh, but had also captured 20 percent of Azerbaijan. A year later, Russia’s intervention led to a ceasefire agreement between the two countries. However, Azerbaijan considers the Nagorno-Karabakh region as its own.
Big role of Russia and Turkey
Russia and Turkey have played an important role in the battle of Armenia and Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan enjoys Turkish support, while Armenia has close ties with Russia. Russia also leads the Collective Security Treaty Organization of Soviet states, including Armenia.
Fight can be faster
The fight between the two countries may intensify. Although the US, France, Russia and Iran etc. have appealed to him to end the war, but Turkey has declared his support for Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev has also declared a struggle to regain Nagorno-Karabakh.
