Summary: | The common declaration signed by the Presidents of Russia and
Azerbaijan and the Prime Minister of Armenia on November 9, 2020, put an end to the one
month and a half military clashes that had taken place in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
zone (Nagorno-Karabakh proper and the seven adjacent districts surrounding it) since
September 27, 2020. The entry of the Russian troops into the region represents, in fact, a
new “frozening” of the conflict on the new alignments of the troops (which are becoming the
new “Line of Contact”), for an indefinite period of time. While Azerbaijan has fulfilled most
of its objectives, taking back the seven adjacent districts and the southern part of NagornoKarabakh proper, it has not succeeded in taking back Nagorno-Karabakh entirely.
Moreover, the status of Nagorno-Karabakh remains undetermined, which also leaves room
to further tensions and/or negotiations.
