Hello all,

My company is developing an app and our backend is running on Microsoft Azure Cloud.
Is there any information in which countries Microsoft Azure is not available? For example, we have read that Azure is not available in Cuba. Are there other "problem" regions?

Thank you in advance!

Best regards
