Kalbajar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kalbajar (Azerbaijani: Kəlbəcər) is a rayon of Azerbaijan. It was a predominantly Kurdish inhabited area[citation needed]. Kalbajar is a Kurdish name meaning Stone City[citation needed]. The entire region is now under the control of Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, who call the western half Karvajar, and the eastern half is officially part of Nagorno-Karabakh, making up part of the province of Martakert[citation needed]. The Azeri and Kurdish population of Kalbajar were expelled by Armenian forces and currently live as internally displaced persons in the other regions of Azerbaijan[citation needed]. The UN Security Council Resolution # 822, adopted on 30 April 1993, calls for “immediate withdrawal of all occupying forces from the Kelbadjar district and other recently occupied areas of Azerbaijan”.[1]
