Karabakh exhibition due in Ankara

Ankara will host an exhibition "Three generations in Karabakh, a genocide" on September 17.

The Council of State Support to Non-Governmental Organizations under the Azerbaijani president and the Turkish Centre for International Relations and Strategic Studies (TURKSAM) are organizers of the event, AzerTag state news agency reported.

The four-day exhibition will demonstrate photos of Azerbaijan`s occupied territories by Armenia. Magazines on Azerbaijani realities will be distributed among visitors. The event will be followed by a conference.

Later, the exhibition will travel to Istanbul, Belgium and the Netherlands.

For over two decades, Azerbaijan and Armenia have been locked in the conflict which emerged over Armenia's territorial claims against its South Caucasus neighbor.

Since a war in the early 1990s, Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven surrounding regions. A fragile ceasefire has been in place since 1994, but long-standing efforts by U.S., Russian and French mediators have been largely fruitless so far.

Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions calling on its pullout from the neighboring country's territories.
