The Lachin Kurdish Republic was proclaimed in 1992 during the Nagorno-Karabakh War by Wekîl Mustafayev, the ex-President of Red Kurdistandubious. However, since most of the areas Kurdish population had fled along with the ethnic Azeris and had found refuge in other regions of Azerbaijan, this attempt failed. Mustafayev later took refuge in Italy.
