DAYS OF SORROW
Egyptian newspaper issues article on January 20 tragedy
Amman, January 24 (AZERTAC). The Egyptian newspaper “Al-Alam al-Yaum” has issued an article by Azerbaijani ambassador to the country Shahin Abdullayev on the 24th anniversary of Black January tragedy.
In the article, the Ambassador gives detailed information about the event that led to the tragedy and its consequences.
Abdullayev strongly condemns military invasion and indiscriminate killing of civilians in the city of Baku by the Soviet troops on 19-20 January 1990. “The heavy-handed crackdown resulted in indiscriminate killing of some 147 civilians with more than 700 injured and many others went missing.”
The Ambassador ends his article by stressing that although a young independent state, Azerbaijan had already became the regional leader.
