A scientific-practical conference titled “Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan. Political, cultural and social issues 30 years after” kicked off on Saturday in the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia.

The participants of the conference are the representatives of the scientific and analytical field, the expert community, political scientists, leaders of public organizations and participants of the events from 30 years ago.

The participants are expected to discuss the reasons that led to the tragic events of 1988-1990, the processes that took place before, during and after these events, as well as the integration processes related to the involvement of Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan, currently living in Armenia, in the social and cultural life of the country.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
