Azerbaijan marks National Revival Day

Azerbaijan, Baku, November 17 / Trend News /

Azerbaijan marks National Revival Day.

On the first days of 1988 Armenia started its evident attack against Azerbaijan. Basing on the indifferent attitude of Moscow and particularly of M.Gorbachov's, the head of the USSR, Armenians started planned mass deportation of Azerbaijanis from their native lands in Armenia under the directions of Armenian government. Above 200 000 Azerbaijanis deported from their homes, killed and burned by the Armenians. There was no reaction to the Armenian vandalism by M. Gorbachov and his surrounding. At early February 1988 Armenians carried out revolts in the region Nagorny Karabakh of Azerbaijan and even raise a question to join those lands to Armenia.
