Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze the human rights situation in unrecognized states in the South Caucasus, based on the decision-making of the European Court of Human Rights. The object of the analysis is the interstate complaint Georgia v. Russian Federation (II) and two individual complaints: Chiragov and others v. Armenia and Mamasakhlisi and others v. Georgia. It discusses the attribution of responsibility to the state that exercises effective control over the de facto state. It also points out the recent development following the expulsion of the Russian Federation from the Council of Europe and the dissolution of the de facto Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh.
