According to a report by the foreign news agency AP, Negro-Karabakh is recognized internationally as part of Azerbaijan, but since the end of the war between the two countries in 1994, it has been governed by locals of Armenian descent.
There have been several clashes since then, but the most recent fighting in the area began on September 27 this year.
Several ceasefires have been called for during this period, but were immediately violated, but the agreement is now more likely to be implemented, as Azerbaijan has made significant progress, including taking control of the key city of Shoshi. ۔
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashini said in a Facebook post that ending the fighting was "extremely painful for me personally and for our people."
Immediately after the announcement, thousands of people marched on the main square of the Armenian capital, Yerevan, against the agreement, and shouted, "We will not leave our land."
Some of them stormed the central government building, saying they were looking for a prime minister who had apparently left.
The agreement calls on the Armenian army to relinquish control of some areas outside the Negrono-Karabakh border, including the eastern district of Agram. This area is a huge symbol for Azerbaijan.
Armenia will also come out of the Lachin region, where the main road from Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia is established.
The agreement also calls for the so-called Lachin Corridor to be kept open and protected by Russian peacekeepers.
All 1,960 Russian troops will be deployed in the region with a five-year mandate.
The agreement also calls for the establishment of transport links with Armenia from the western region of Nakhchivan in Azerbaijan, which includes Armenia, Iran and Turkey.
