To this day, the lack of understanding the means of resolution as well as the absence of resolution mechanisms makes the subject interesting for both politicians and scholars alike, raising the question: "What should be done?" My paper aims to analyze the geopolitical changes that took place after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. It also tries to shed light on the pivotal role of the peacemaking efforts of the United States regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh problem, normalisation of hostilities between the republics of Turkey and Armenia, and their reconciliation. abszz Sarukhanyan, Tigran N Country:Armenia Country:Turkey National Reconciliation Region: Europe 2007-03-04T23:41:09Z RJ Article
