Guess I can now announce that I am looking for a job. After the State Security Service detained and released me on 27 August 2024, I lost all my jobs except for a one-time Goethe Institute job in Azerbaijan.

Even the most educated people in S. Caucasus have no idea about their most recent historical and political geographies. Learning those geographies is a way to embrace Shusha and Stepanakert as signifiers of common past and coexistence under Persian, Russian, Soviet empires. x.com/FuserLimon/sta…

Funny to see "proud to be Armenian" Wiki editors discussing the deletion of the Wiki article "Place name changes in Armenia" cuz it cites a paper "that doesn't appear to be credible. Ghulyan got his Ph.D from Ankara University, which explains why the article is so anti-Armenian".
