Battle for Control

The video discusses the conflict over the Nagorno Karabakh region, which began in 1990 due to Joseph Stalin's decision to make it part of Soviet Azerbaijan. This led to ethnic tensions and a full-scale war, resulting in significant casualties and displacement. Despite a ceasefire, skirmishes continued. The region's oil resources have made it geopolitically significant, with countries like Turkey and Europe relying on its exports.
