    On March 22 and 23, an international conference - "The Azerbaijani
    Policy of State Terror and Ethnic Cleansing towards Nagorno Karabakh"
    - dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the tragic events in the
    Karabakhi town of Shushi and the 20th anniversary of the Armenian
    pogroms in the city of Baku took place at the National Assembly of
    the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and in the town of Shushi.

    Chairman of the NKR National Assembly Ashot Ghulian made a greeting
    speech.

    "The day of March 23, 1920, when the Armenian part of Shushi was put
    to fire and the population was subjected to massacre and deportation,
    became a tragedy for Artsakh," the Speaker said.

    At the same time, he noted that "neither the monstrous crime of the
    Young Turks, nor Stalin's repressions, and nor the insidiousness
    of the Caucasian Tatars were able to make the Armenians refuse from
    their idea of national revival."

    The following reports were presented during the conference: "The
    Reasons and Consequences of the Armenian Ethnic Cleansing in Baku,
    Gandzak, and Nagorno Karabakh in the first quarter of the 20th
    century", "Shushi of 1919-1920 in the documents of the USA Department
    of State and the National Archive of Armenia", "The History and Tragedy
    of Shushi: What Russia Knows and Should Know About It", "The Karabakh
    Issue at the Armenian-Russian Negotiations in the Summer of 1920",
    "Cultural Ethnocide in Artsakh", "The Role of the Impunity Factor
    at the Pogroms in Sumgait and Baku", "From Sumgait to the Artsakh
    Liberation Struggle", "The Azerbaijani Mass Media and Stereotypes",
    and others. The speeches were followed by discussions.

    Local and invited scientists and experts from Armenia, Russia, Germany,
    and other countries participated in the conference.

    The conference was organized by the NKR Ministry of Education and
    Science, NKR Ministry of Culture and Youth Affairs, the Artsakh
    State University, "Kachar" Scientific Center, and the Shushi Local
    History Museum.
