February 27 commemorates victims of Sumgait massacre: Pashinyan
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan wrote in his Twitter microblog that today we remember the victims of Sumgait massacres.
"On Feb 27, 1988 hundreds of Armenians were killed and deported from Azerbaijan, which was a response to the peaceful demonstrations of Nagorno Karabakh Armenians to protect their right of self-determination. Today we commemorate the victims of the Sumgait massacre."
