    POGROMS OF ARMENIANS IN BAKU: EVIDENCES AND EVALUATIONS OF POLITICIANS, PUBLIC OFFICIALS AND WITNESSES

    17:49 13/01/2015 >> SOCIETY

    25 years ago, on 13 January in 1990, in the "international" capital
    of Soviet Azerbaijan began the last act of genocide and expulsion of
    Armenians. The city was merely drowned in brutal hatred and bloodlust:
    for a week Azerbaijanis killed, raped, burned and expelled people with
    impunity and without hindrance only because they were Armenians. The
    evidence of witnesses on pogroms in Baku can be found on the site
    of KarabakhRecords.

    "When attackers are resolutely going from district to district
    and from home to home, that means they have been given lists,
    that there is someone who is directing [the whole thing]"

    "I myself witnessed the murder of two Armenians near the railway
    station. A crowd gathered, threw petrol on them and set light to
    them even though the Nasiminsky District Police Station was only 200
    meters away - with some 400-500 soldiers of the internal forces. The
    soldiers drove by the burning bodies at a distance of some 20 meters,
    and nobody attempted to close off the area and disperse the crowd."

    Novaya Zhizn Newspaper, Moscow, 1990, No. 5 (14))

    "The massacres were not entirely (or perhaps not at all) spontaneous,
    as the attackers had lists of Armenians and their addresses."

    Robert Kushen, Reporter at Human Rights Watch (Source: Conflict in
    the Soviet Union: Black January for Azerbaidzhan, Human Rights Watch,
    May 1991) Russians living in the capital city of Azerbaijan recall
    with horror scenes of retribution - how their neighbours were shot
    at point-blank range, thrown off balconies, burned alive and even
    dismembered by a fanatical Azeri mob."

    "The Baku riots had been planned in detail by the Popular Front. On New
    Year's Eve, the State Border with Iran was destroyed by the masses;
    and, on January 11 the pogroms started in Baku. About 40 mobs (with
    50-300 people in each) roamed the city."

    "For five days in January of 1990, the Armenian community of Baku,
    the capital of Azerbaijan were killed, tortured, robbed and humiliated.

    Pregnant women and babies were molested, little girls were raped in
    front of their parents' eyes, Christian crosses were burned on their
    backs, and they were abused for their Christian faith."
