A number of officials conducted a procession to Tsitsernakaberd
Memorial today to commemorate the memories of the victims of Baku
pogroms of 1990.

The participants, thus, expressed their protest against the offence
committed by the Azerbaijani government and condemned the Baku
massacres of January 19 committed 20 years ago.

PM Tigran Sargsyan, who was among the participants, said the Armenians
were killed just for being Armenians.

"When commemorating the victims, we should highlight this: the only
thing they are to blame for is being Armenians," PM said.

According to T. Sargsyan, Armenians should unite since serious hazards
and serious challenges are yet to come.

"The evidence to this come to be not only Baku pogroms conducted 20
years ago but also today’s reality – Azerbaijan’s official policy,
propaganda of hatred towards the Armenians," PM highlighted.
