ARMENIANS DEMONSTRATE AGAINST AZERBAIJANI EMBASSY IN BRUSSELS
In the afternoon of February 26, 2014, a demonstration organized by
the Armenian National Committee of Belgium was held in front of the
Embassy of Azerbaijan in Brussels, commemorating the Armenian victims
of Azerbaijani pogroms in Sumgait, Baku, Maragha, Minkeshahuri,
Kirovabad and other cities.
Waving Armenian and Nagorno Karabakh flags and posters, as well as loud
calls in French, English, Russian and Armenian, slogans reminding of
Azerbaijan's bloody past and present, of the pogroms beginning back
in 1988 to the assassination of Gourgen Margaryan and the heroic
death of Armen Hovhanissyan, the protesters reminded that Armenians
all over the world never forget these events and that sooner or later
Azerbaijan shall recognise and admit the freedom and independence of
Artsakh - Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
Having read loudly the letter addressed to the Embassy of Azerbaijan,
the protesters marched to the memorial of the victims of Armenian
Genocide in Brussels. The prayer for the souls of Armenian victims
was pronounced there with the presence of M. Seyran Ohanyan, Minister
of Defence of the Republic of Armenia, H.E. Avet Adonts, ambassador
Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, M. Armen Edigaryan, Head of RoA
Mission to NATO, representatives of the Armenian community. The
participants laid wreaths to the memorial.
