In memory of the Armenian pogroms in Sumgait and other Azerbaijani
towns in 1988, the “European Center for Artsakh (Karabakh)” and the
“Genocide Recognition Committee” German NGOs, together with Berlin’s
two Armenian communities, held a demonstration in the German capital,
and under the slogan: “This shall not happen again.”

Saint Louis Church, addresses were delivered by Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic’s Permanent Representative in Germany, Harutyun Grigoryan;
Armenia’s Ambassador to Armenia, Armen Martirosyan; and several others.
