Thirty years ago, in January of 1990, purges of the Armenians were ordered in Baku, claiming the lives of hundreds of Armenians; many were injured, subjected to tortures, were expelled, some were lost without a trace. After the pogroms, Baku, which had had the Armenian population of 250,000, was totally purged of Armenians.
