Heritage parliamentary group secretary Larisa Alaverdyan characterized Armenian pogroms in the village of Maraghar as a crime against humanity.

“The authorities of the impendent Azerbaijan stopped at nothing. To justify their actions, Azeri authorities committed crimes not only against Armenian population, but also against their compatriots,” Alaverdyan told a news conference in Yerevan.

As she noted, the project Maraghar-20th Century Golgotha is not aimed at stirring hatred against Azeri people, rather, being an attempt at preventing such genocides in future.
