Biden reconnaît officiellement le massacre ottoman des Arméniens comme un génocide
Dozens of protesters gather outside the American consulate in Istanbul after Joe Biden became the first US president to recognise the 1915 killings of Armenians by Ottoman forces as genocide. The landmark move has drawn praise from Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and condemnation from Turkey's ally Azerbaijan. IMAGES

Azerbaijan's lightning military takeover of the Nagorno-Karabakh, ethnic Armenian enclave, last week, sparked a sudden exodus of 100,417 people, according to Yerevan, from an estimated population of 120,000 since the breakaway region saw its decades-long fight against Azerbaijani rule end in sudden defeat.
