Özet
XVIII. asırda Kafkasya'yı ve Kuzey Azerbaycan'ı ele geçirmek için geniş çaplı savaş faaliyetine başlayan Çarlık Rusya'sı ve Batılı ülkeler, XIX asırda kendi amacına ulaşmıştır. Ermenilerin Kafkaslar'a ve Azerbaycan'a yerleştirilmesi ve güçlendirilmesinin esas sebebi Rusya ve diğer güçlerin bu arazide yürüttüğü Hıristiyanlaştırma ve doğal zenginlikleri, özellikle Bakü petrolünü ele geçirme siyasetinin sonucu idi. Ermenilere, Rusya başta olmak üzere dış güçlerin destek olduğunu gösteren çok sayıda arşiv kaynağı bulunmaktadır. Bu kaynakların bir kısmını makalemizde kullanmaya çalıştık. Arşiv kaynakları, Ermeniler büyük devletlerin desteğiyle sadece Osmanlı sınırları içerisindeki Anadolu Türklerine değil, aynı zamanda Azerbaycan Türklerine de mezalim uyguladıklarını göstermektedir.
