For about 30 years, Armenia has occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory - Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions. As a result, one million Azerbaijanis have become refugees and internally displaced persons.

The four resolutions adopted by the UN Security Council on the liberation of the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and adjacent regions have not yet been implemented by Armenia.
