The head of the Armenian government, Nikol Pashinian, under the mediation of Russian President Vladimir Putin, signed an agreement with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev on the night of November 10 to end the fighting. Aliyev called it a “great victory”. Pashinian, meanwhile, has demanded the resignation of the protesters in Armenia because he is to blame for their “defeat” and loss of territory.
The Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh began in February 1988, when the Nagorno-Karabakh Armenian Autonomous Region declared its withdrawal from the Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic. In September 1991, the establishment of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic was announced at the Stepanakert Autonomous Administrative Center.
In the wake of the military conflict, Azerbaijan lost control of Nagorno-Karabakh.
