Refugees from Karabakh, Suren Martirosyan (L) and his wife Maina (R) have dinner with their family at a rental house in the village of Noyakert in Ararat province of Armenia, on December 22, 2023. Arch-foes Armenia and Azerbaijan have said they are close to signing a peace agreement based on the recognition of each other's territorial integrity, but few among Karabakh refugees share the hope, as deeply-rooted ethnic hatred still poisons relations between Armenians and Azerbaijanis after decades of enmity.
