V.L. Velichko

Vasili Lvovich Velichko (Russian: Васи́лий Льво́вич Вели́чко, 1860 — December 31, 1903 Saint Petersburg) was a Russian poet, playwright and publicist, one of the leaders of Russian Assembly, and editor of the semi-official Kavkaz gazette.

Known as a Russian chauvinist, he demonstrated blatant intolerance to the Armenians and tried to set them on other populations in the Caucasus. He was active during the period when the imperial Russian authorities carried out a purposeful anti-Armenian policy.

According to the Russian historian V. Shnirelman, "it is curious that his works were re-published in Azerbaijan in the early 1990s and received wide popularity there". Velichko's "forgotten racist tract" was reissued by Ziya Bunyadov's academy.
