Below are all references to the Republic of Armenia in the four UN Security Council resolutions. None of the resolutions passed by the UN Security Council label the Republic of Armenia as an invading or occupying party. In fact, all resolutions make a clear distinction between the Republic of Armenia, which is a member state of the United Nations, and local Armenian forces of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
