Nagorno-Karabakh, also known as Artsakh, is a landlocked region in the South Caucasus. Martakert Province is a province of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (de facto), and the Tartar Rayon of Azerbaijan (de jure). It has been under Armenian control since the 1994 ceasefire. Gravestones with Azeri writings and muslim symbols. Azerbaijani or Azeri are terms referring to the language that are spoken primarily by the Azerbaijanis. Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed territory, internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, but most of the region is governed by the Republic of Artsakh (formerly named Nagorno-Karabakh Republic), a de facto independent state with Armenian ethnic population. Since 1994, regular peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan mediated by the OSCE Minsk Group have failed to result in a peace treaty. The territory is under the control of the Artsakh Defense Army (which is backed up by Armenian Army) due to the ongoing territorial disputes with Azerbaijan. 5.10.2019 © 2019 Didier Ruef
