Last Year’s six week war over Nagorno-Karabakh between Armenia and Azerbaijan saw the most intense conflict in Europe or its periphery this century and has layered fresh trauma and tragedy on top of decades of devastation.
Now Armenian's are facing an uncertain future. The devastating war, which killed an estimated 4000 people as the rest of the world was busy managing COVID’s challenges, has brought about a political crisis which sees the country polarised, and even endangering the fragile ceasefire between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
