The Azerbaijani authorities will open a park of war trophies obtained during the latest conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh in Baku. Day.Az reports about it on Monday, February 8.
Construction work is underway on the territory. Some of the military equipment has already been brought to the site. Some trophies were shown at the victory parade in the Azerbaijani capital on December 10.
In 1991, Nagorno-Karabakh, inhabited mainly by Armenians, proclaimed independence from Azerbaijan, which it was part of during the Soviet era. War broke out. In 1994, Armenia, Azerbaijan and the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR), mediated by Russia, concluded a truce, but it was periodically violated.
On September 27, 2020, battles began on the line of demarcation between Azerbaijan and NKR. They continued until November 10, when Baku, Yerevan and Moscow adopted a joint ceasefire statement. As a result of the war, Azerbaijan regained a number of territories lost in the early 1990s.
