Forced assimilation in Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan has had a deliberate policy of forced assimilation of ethnic minorities or Azerbaijanization since Soviet times (Azerbaijan SSR) and up to the present. Non-Turkic peoples, such as Talyshis, Tats, Kurds, Lezgins, Georgian-Ingiloy, Udis and others have been subjected to forced Azerbaijanization (Turkification).
