Armenian police officers detain a protester during a rally against land transfer to Azerbaijan, in Yerevan on April 30, 2024. The protesters are hoping to thwart Armenia's plans to return control of four abandoned Azerbaijani villages – seized during the 1990s – as part of wider talks on securing an elusive peace deal with Baku. The two Caucasus rivals have been locked in tension and bloody conflict since the break-up of the Soviet Union more than three decades ago. They fought two wars – in the 1990s and 2020 – for control over Nagorno-Karabakh, territory internationally recognised as Azerbaijan's but controlled for 30 years by Armenian separatists. Baku recaptured it in a lightning offensive last September, and talks over a broader border agreement have since intensified. (Photo by Karen Minasyan/AFP Photo)
