Nagorno-Karabakh is located deep in southwestern Azerbaijan, but the majority of the population is of Armenian origin, so they want to separate to merge with Armenia. This sparked a sovereignty dispute between the two countries that culminated in the war that lasted from February 1988 to May 1994.
Despite the 1994 ceasefire agreement and subsequent peace negotiations, the conflict still raged here. Since 2008, Azerbaijan and Armenia have held more than 10 high-level meetings to resolve the problem, but they have not found a solution because they both consider the disputed territory under their sovereignty and do not accept the mediation.
