As one of the historical lands of Azerbaijan, Zangezur region has been strategically important due to its geographical location and has rich natural and spiritual wealth. Despite the fact that it is always proven in the documents as a region inhabited by Azerbaijanis, the "Great Armenia" dream of Armenians did not bypass this region. How? The answer to this question is complic ated: by committing mass massacres, destroying the material and spiritual heritage of the people, and most importantly, "by going astray when they feel the power behind them". In the foreign policy of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, it is very important to analyze the issue of the Zangezur region and investigate the aggressive policy of Armenia.
Key words: Zangezur, aggressive policy, massacre, foreign policy of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, territorial claims.
