After posting the results of a survey last year examining perceptions of inter-ethnic friendship in the South Caucasus [1], Social Science in Caucasus now posts information on attitudes to inter-ethnic marriage. According the results, 99% of Azerbaijanis disapprove of their women marrying Armenians while 92% of Armenians disapprove of marriage with Azerbaijanis. Meanwhile, 75% of Georgians disapprove of marriage with Azerbaijanis and 66% with Armenians [2].
