23 February 2011 16:25 (UTC +04:00)

Chairman of the YAP Youth Union Seymur Orujov spoke about the details of the tragedy and said the genocide was committed with the special assistance of the 366th Motor Rifle Regiment of the USSR Armed Forces.

Deputy chairman of YAP Ali Ahmadov said the massacre was not a military crime, it was a crime against humanity.
â€œThe international organizations have not made efforts to give fair assessment to the massacre. Unfortunately, those who committed this crime are proud of their actions and holding highest posts in Armenia,â€ he said.
Ali Ahmadov said by showing indifference to such crimes, the world community paves the way for new crimes.

Ali Ahmadov called on the Azerbaijani youth to be active.
â€œThe Azerbaijani youth should fight this indifference. They should give information about the tragedy to the international organizations in all events, hold rallies and struggle,â€ he said.

The event continued with the speeches on the tragedy. Short film â€œDonâ€™t forget Khojaly genocideâ€ was screened at the event.
