    The conflict between the two countries of the South Caucasus began
    in 1988, due to the Armenian territorial claims against Azerbaijan.

    Since 1992, the Armenian Armed Forces have occupied 20% of Azerbaijan,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and its seven neighboring
    districts. In 1994, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire
    agreement which ended the active hostilities. The Co-Chairs of the
