Guess I can now announce that I am looking for a job. After the State Security Service detained and released me on 27 August 2024, I lost all my jobs except for a one-time Goethe Institute job in Azerbaijan.
I formally apologize for ever suggesting Turks were too sensitive about maps...

The "Western Azerbaijan Community" thing actually resonates well with all possible future scenarios and trajectories of this development.

There is something interesting going on considering one side has no options the other all the options and they make a deal with no 3rd party involved. Cool! Let's hope it's gonna work for Armenia too!

Ghazanchetsots Cathedral and hundreds of other structures in Karabakh have now 3D models on the Google Earth desktop version. The models reflect the structures' pre-2020 appearance.
Is this a recent update?
Hopefully, it's the algorithm of this app that makes such postings invisible and irrelevant rather than the algoritm of virtue signaling that only interacts and spreads the word when it's about the destruction/damage/threat of a church or cemetery.

Even the most educated people in S. Caucasus have no idea about their most recent historical and political geographies. Learning those geographies is a way to embrace Shusha and Stepanakert as signifiers of common past and coexistence under Persian, Russian, Soviet empires.

Our 2nd special satellite investigation dedicated to the treatment of Azerbaijani heritage in Karabakh is out. It presents the most systematic analysis of the fate of Azerbaijani heritage sites (mosques, mausolea, historic cemeteries) under Armenian control in 1994-2020.

Funny to see "proud to be Armenian" Wiki editors discussing the deletion of the Wiki article "Place name changes in Armenia" cuz it cites a paper "that doesn't appear to be credible. Ghulyan got his Ph.D from Ankara University, which explains why the article is so anti-Armenian".
