    IS AZERBAIJAN TRYING TO INFLUENCE HUNGARIAN PUBLIC VIA MEDIA?

    Yerevan, April 10. ArmInfo. A group of Hungarian journalists has
    visited Azerbaijan on the invitation of the Azeri Embassy in Hungary
    and the Azeri State Committee on Azeris Abroad.

    The Hungarian guests have met with representatives of the presidential
    administration, the state committee on refugees and displaced persons,
    the defence, foreign, culture and tourism ministries, the state oil
    company. They have fully justified the expectations of the hosts by
    promising them to tell the Hungarian public what they have seen and
    heard in Azerbaijan.

    In a press-conference the editor of the Szemle magazine, doctor Nagi
    Laszlo Sandos said: "We wanted to see your country and to tell the
    Hungarian people the truth about Azerbaijan." "We have been provided
    with detailed information about the Armenian-Azeri conflict, have seen
    its bitter consequences: Apr 5 we visited refugee camps in Sabirabad,
    Bilasuvar and Imishlin to see the living conditions of the people
    expelled from their homes as a result of the conflict. What we have
    seen and heard was completely different from what we knew before,"
    says Sandos.

    Asked about Azeri officer Ramil Safarov, facing life in prison in
    Hungary for killing his Armenian counterpart, the Hungarian guests
    said that Hungarian judges are independent and nobody can pressure
    them. Obviously, the Safarov trial was the key reason why the Azeri
    side has invited the Hungarian journalists to Baku.
