As a response, Azerbaijani nationalist groups targeted the defenceless Armenian minority of Baku, systematically purging innocent men, women and children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the pogroms, the international community remained largely silent, hence, paving the way for more Azeri aggression during the war, that sadly continues to this day,\u201d said Shahen Mirakian, president of the Armenian National Committee of Canada.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the pogroms, the once 215,000 strong Armenian community of Baku completely disappeared. The Baku pogroms came two years after another similar act by Azerbaijan, when over 200 Armenians were massacred at the hands of the Azerbaijanis, in the city of Sumgait.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese haunting examples prove that impunity only emboldens the perpetrator and does not serve justice to the victims\u201d said Mirakian.<br \/>\n\u201cAzerbaijan fits this example perfectly, as it continues its aggression towards innocent Armenians to this day. It is therefore our duty to remember and properly condemn such gross acts of crimes against humanity\u201d concluded Mirakian.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OTTAWA.- Today, the Armenian National Committee of Canada pauses to solemnly remember the innocent Armenian lives that were lost during the Baku Pogroms, at the hands of radical Azerbaijani nationalist groups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15456,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[115],"tags":[132,286],"class_list":["post-15455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-anc-canada","tag-canada"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
