The events that took place in Baku in response to the Nagorno-Karabakh
people’s demand for self-determination was a monstrous manifestation
of Azerbaijan’s policy of strong arm and ethnic cleansing," RA Deputy
Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan stated, commenting on the tragic
events in Baku, Azerbaijan, 20 years ago. The result of Azerbaijan’s
policy was forcible displacement of 400,000 Armenians, a large-scale
military aggression against Nagorno-Karabakh, which cause human and
material losses.
"The fact that, instead of admitting its guilt and responsibility
for the crimes, Azerbaijan continues an anti-Armenian hysteria and
militant rhetoric proves that official Baku still poses a threat to
both Azerbaijani population and the entire region, Sh. Kocharyan said.
Armenian pogrom began in Baku on January 13, 1990. Azeri extremists
brutally murdered about 100 Armenians.
