Armenia and Azerbaijan move closer to normalizing ties as the first border marker goes up

The Hindu  

Armenia and Azerbaijan on April 23 came a step closer toward normalizing relations after a bitter conflict over territory, as experts in both countries worked to demarcate their boundaries and the first border marker was placed. The two nations are working toward a peace treaty after Azerbaijan regained full control of the Karabakh province which had been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces since the 1990s. Several days ago, Armenia and Azerbaijan reached an agreement over a stretch of border that would cut though four Armenian villages in the Tavush province, meaning that Armenia would cede some territory to Azerbaijan. After Azerbaijan regained full control of Karabakh, the vast majority of its nearly 120,000 population fled to Armenia, although Azerbaijan said they were welcome to stay and promised their human rights would be ensured.
