STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 27, ARTSAKHPRESS-ARMENPRESS: As the Press, Information and Public Relations Department of the Armenian MFA informed, Armenian organizations in Netherlands, including ARF-D Hay Dat Committee of the Netherlands, submitted a requirement to the Foreign Minister of the Netherlands Bert Koenders. In the requirement they urged to condemn massacres against Armenians 28 years ago in Azerbaijan and make efforts to stop the latter's ongoing aggression against Artsakh, as well as the ceasefire violations and subversive actions.
Paying tribute to the memory of the innocent victims of the massacres against Armenians, organized by the Azerbaijani authorities in Sumgait, Baku, Kirovabad, and Maragha as an answer for the Nagorno Karabakh people's demands to self-determination, the protesters, with calls 'Stop the Azerbaijani aggression', marched to the Azerbaijani Embassy in the Netherlands. The protesters condemned Azerbaijani authorities' anti-Armenian policy and urged the Azerbaijani young people to stand up for changing aggressive behavior of Azerbaijan and demanded to stop the ongoing aggression against Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia.
