Azerbaijan and Ukraine relations took through centuries and both countries used to be the part of Russian Empire and then Soviet Union. Currently there are over 45,000 Azerbaijanis in Ukraine.[1] Most of them live in Donetsk Oblast (8 thousand), Kharkiv - (5-6 thousand), and Dnipropetrovsk - (5-6 thousand people). The number of ethnic groups grew very rapidly - especially between 1960 and 1990, it increased 5.5 times, largely due to instability in the South Caucasus. Today, Ukraine is home to the 7th largest Azerbaijani community in the world.
The resettlement of Azerbaijanis into the territory of Ukraine is marked by certain historical events, dominated by migration processes that were primarily economic in nature. About 2,300 Azerbaijanis are native Ukrainian speakers. Ukraine is also host to a number of Azerbaijani guest workers which has yet to be ascertained.
The majority of Azerbaijanis are Muslim, mainly Shia. Azerbaijanis are one of the least religious nations in the world. They don't regularly practice their religion or show their faith in the way they dress.[2]
Currently, 15 regions of Ukraine have national cultural societies for Azerbaijanis. In eight regions, Sunday schools study Azerbaijani language and literature. Publication of the magazine Voice of Azerbaijan (Azerbaijani and Ukrainian) began in Kyiv in 1998. The first Azerbaijani newspaper in Ukraine, Millət (The Nation), has been published since 1991 in Crimea.
