Places That Don't Exist: Nagorno Karabakh 1 of 4
There are almost 200 official countries in the world. But there are dozens more breakaway states which are determined to be separate and independent. The breakaway states have their own rulers, parliaments or warlords, and are home to millions of people, but they're not officially recognised as proper countries by the rest of the world. Several have their own armies and police forces, and issue passports and even postage stamps which the rest of the world ignores. All of the breakaway states have declared independence after violent struggles with a neighbouring state. Some now survive peacefully, but others are a magnet for terrorists and weapons smuggling, and have armies ready for a fight. Several could be at the centre of future wars which threaten their regions and the wider world. In a world of easy adventure tourism, Simon visits breakaway states & unrecognized nations which don't usually feature on the tourist trail: Somaliland, Transniestria, South Ossetia, Taiwan, Abkhazia, Ajaria and Nagorno-Karabkh Welcome to Places That Don't Exist... Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia and Azerbaijan Azerbaijan and Armenia became independent after the collapse of the Soviet Union, but a mountainous area of Azerbaijan called Nagorno-Karabkh (NK) triggered war. Historically it was mainly Armenian Christian, and when it wanted its own independence, Armenian troops helped the Karabkh army push Azeris out. Azerbaijan is still officially at war over NK, and Simon's journey starts in ...

Rep. Adam Schiff Celebrates Nagorno Karabakh Independence at Capitol Hill Observance
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) roundly condemns Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev's praise, pardon and promotion of convicted axe-murderer Ramil Safarov at the Capitol Hill celebration of Nagorno Karabakh Republic independence. Safarov killed Armenian Lt. Gurgen Margaryan in his sleep during a NATO training exercise in Hungary in 2004 "To make a hero out of an axe-murderer is appalling," said Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), who just days earlier had sent a strongly worded letter to Senate and House Appropriators calling for restrictions on all US military assistance to Azerbaijan. "Whatever assistance we have given to Azerbaijan for military training has been worse than wasted and I do not see why we give Azerbaijan a red nickel," Rep. Schiff told the Capitol Hill audience. The annual Nagorno Karabakh Republic independence celebration took place on December 5th in the historic Russell Senate Office Building, in Washington, DC, and was hosted by the Armenian Caucus, which is co-chaired by Congressman Ed Royce (R-CA), the incoming Chairman of the influential Foreign Affairs Committee, and Congressman Frank Pallone (D-NJ). Representative Pallone served as the evening's master of ceremonies. Among the legislators joining Rep. Schiff in offering powerful statements at the event in support for Nagorno Karabakh were Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), David Cicilline (D-RI), Anna Eshoo (D-CA), Brad Sherman (D-CA), and Eliot Engel (D-NY), the incoming Ranking Member of the Foreign Affairs Committee ...

PLACES THAT DONT EXIST: NAGORNO KARABAKH (episode 4 of 5)
Please visit www.simonreeve.co.uk for more information. Simon Reeve travels to agroup of unrecognised nations -- countries so obscure they don't officially exist -- in this five-part BBC TV series, shown on BBC2, BBC World and by broadcasters in more than 40 countries. On his journey he visits little-known parts of the world including Somaliland, Transniestria, Nagorno-Karabakh, Ajaria, South Ossetia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Somalia, Moldova, Taiwan, and the former Soviet republic of Georgia. In this series, Simon Reeve is taught to fish by the President of Moldova, becomes an unofficial Somali diplomat, and finds himself crammed into a lift with the President of Georgia. He visits a little-known country stuck in a Soviet-era time-warp, and a mountainous state which claims to have the highest rate of longevity on the planet. Simon also discovers abandoned missiles capable of destroying skyscrapers, al Qaeda terrorists in an African jail and the mass graves of children killed by soldiers. Simon meets a blonde popstar who's a crackshot with an AK-47, a mournful guitarist, and a Taiwanese boy band. He climbs the world's tallest building, visits the site of the battle in Black Hawk Down, is electrocuted in Mogadishu, finds 5000 year old rock paintings, buys himself a new Somali passport from a man called Mr Big Beard, and is held as a spy by the Transniestrian KGB. Snake blood is on the menu in Asia, rock-hard yoghurt in the Caucuses, camel milk in Africa and two bottles of ...

Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict -- Fight the War, Bring the Peace (Rotary Club of Baku International)
Nagorno-Karabakh is a landlocked region in the South Caucasus, lying between Lower Karabakh and Zangezur and covering the southeastern range of the Lesser Caucasus mountains. Most of the region is governed by the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, a de facto independent, but unrecognized state established on the basis of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast within the Azerbaijan SSR of the Soviet Union. The territory is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, although it has not exercised power over most of the region since 1991. Since the end of the Nagorno-Karabakh War in 1994, representatives of the governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan have been holding peace talks mediated by the OSCE Minsk Group on the region's disputed status. The struggle over Nagorno-Karabakh escalated after both Armenia and Azerbaijan attained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. In the post-Soviet power vacuum, military action between Azerbaijan and Armenia was heavily influenced by the Russian military. Furthermore, both the Armenian and Azerbaijani military employed a large number of mercenaries from Ukraine and Russia. As many as one thousand Afghan mujahideen participated in the fighting on Azerbaijan's side. There were also fighters from Chechnya fighting on the side of Azerbaijan. Many survivors from the Azerbaijani side found shelter in 12 emergency camps set up in other parts of Azerbaijan to cope with the growing number of internally displaced people due to the Nagorno ...
