"Ashkharazhokhov" Remembers the Victims of Armenian Pogroms in Sumgait, Gandzak and Baku

The "Ashkharazhokhov" movement commemorates the victims of the Armenian pogroms carried out by Baku fascists in the occupied territories of Greater Armenia.

The pogroms against the Armenian people took place in Sumgait (February 27-29, 1988), Gandzak (November 1988), and Baku (January 13-20, 1990). These were targeted killings of indigenous Armenian residents, organized by the fascist-leaning authorities of Soviet Azerbaijan under the silent "neutrality" of the USSR government.

"Ashkharazhokhov" characterizes the Armenian pogroms as a continuation of the Genocide of the Armenian people, which began in the Ottoman Empire in the last quarter of the 19th century, continued in Kemalist Turkey, and persisted in late Soviet Azerbaijan.

We condemn the fact that the authorities of the Armenian SSR and, subsequently, the leadership of independent post-Soviet Armenia did not provide a legal assessment of the Armenian pogroms and did not hold all the perpetrators and organizers accountable. The impunity of the perpetrators led to the continuation of the Genocide—this time in Artsakh, where the indigenous population was subjected to targeted extermination on ethnic and religious grounds in 2016 and between 2020 and 2023.

"Ashkharazhokhov" firmly rejects any attempts by the Armenian government to conclude a "peace agreement" on behalf of the Armenian people with the Baku gangs—until the perpetrators and murderers are brought before an Armenian tribunal.
