NOTHING IS CHANGED IN AZERBAIJAN
- "Things that happened in Baku was the result of the policy led by the Azerbaijan government," said Hranush Kharatian, Armenian ethnographer, touching upon the pogroms that were implemented against the Armenians in Baku. She mentioned that the present authorities of Azerbaijan as well praise the heroes of those times. This comes to prove that nothing is changed in Azerbaijan. "I don't want to ascribe all those things to the Azeri people, as the steps undertaken by the present and previous governments of Azerbaijan insult their dignity as well. The label of murderers will always accompany the Azerbaijani nation until those who implemented these crimes are punished. Many of the Azerbaijani people understand this quite well," H. Kharatyan stressed.
