17 January 2019 | 02:00

An event entitled “January 20th - our blood memory” was held at the Central Post Office of the Gabala region, dedicated to the national mourning day - the 29th anniversary of the January 20th tragedy. The event was opened by the Head of the Department, Rauf Karimov, who honored the memory of the martyrs of the January 20th with a minute of silence. In his speech, Rauf Karimov drew attention to the fact that on the night of January 19th to January 20th, 1990, as a result of the insidious plan of pro-Armenian forces and their patrons in the leadership of the USSR, the army and special forces detachments entered Baku, killing civilians. It was said that on that day the norms of international law were violated, women, children and old people, as well as ambulance workers were killed. The speaker noted that National Leader Heydar Aliyev was the first to express his political attitude regarding the bloody incident, stressing that the great leader sharply criticized people who committed tragedy during the meeting held on January 21, 1990 in the Permanent Representation of Azerbaijan in Moscow. He said that the pre-planned January 20th massacre was intended to suppress the struggle of the Azerbaijani people for democracy and national liberation, but the plan failed. It was noted that President Ilham Aliyev, who successfully continued the political course of the National Leader, set a solution to the problems of martyr families and people who have lost their health as one of the important tasks at the state level. By order of the head of state, presidential pensions were assigned to the families of martyrs of January 20th, and they get support constantly. The center's workers who spoke at the meeting told about the criminal nature of the totalitarian Soviet regime on the eve of its fall, about the courage of the sons and daughters of Azerbaijan, demonstrating heroism, giving their lives for the freedom and sovereignty of the Motherland. It was noted that the memory of the martyrs of the bloody January tragedy, inscribed in the history of the struggle in the name of the freedom and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan by the heroic page, will never be erased from our memory.
