Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic

"We're in Nakhchivan, surrounded by Armenia and Turkey. Now that Nakhchivan is under attack by Russia and Armenia, it would mean it could get a lockdown, and also, it could be defeated unconditionally. I won't let Nakhchivan be annexed by Armenia so they can enslave these poor Azeris... even Turks."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Surrounded, But Not Losing
