According to official sources, as the result of genocide, about 12,000 Azerbaijanis were killed and tens of thousands were lost.

Samana Rustamova, chief scientific worker of the museum, gave a speech on "March 31 the genocide of Azerbaijanis in Azerbaijani literature" and noted that March 31 was commemorated by the Azerbaijan People's Republic as a mourning day for two times - in 1919 and 1920. It was the first attempt in the history to give a political assessment to genocide against the people of Azerbaijan and to the aggressive process which continued for over a century. But the collapse of the Azerbaijan People's Republic did not allow finishing this process.
