PanARMENIAN.Net - Baku seems to be already paying off for the
extradition of Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan~Rs axe-killer Ramil
Safarov.
According to Trend news agency, a delegation led by member of National
Assembly of Hungary and co-chair of the Azerbaijani-Hungarian
intergovernmental economic commission Péter Szijjártó will pay an
official visit to Baku.
The Hungarian delegation will comprise representatives from various
economic sectors, including banking, tourism and Wizz Air airlines,
with meeting with Azerbaijani Minister of Economic Development Shahin
Mustafayev on the agenda.
The delegation will also attend the opening ceremony of the 'House
of Hungary' in Baku.
Trade turnover between the two countries in 2012 amounted to $13.397
million, $13.3 million of which account for imports.
According to Azeri media outlets, relations between Baku and Budapest
intensified following the transfer of Ramil Safarov to Baku, with
Azerbaijan and Hungary expressing mutual readiness to ~Sexpand economic
ties~T and deepen cooperation in the field of education.
Ramil Safarov, Azerbaijani army officer who was serving a life
sentence in Hungary for axing to death Armenian Lt. Gurgen Margaryan,
was extradited to Azerbaijan and pardoned by President Ilham Aliyev.
Official Yerevan reacted by suspending diplomatic ties with Hungary.
Hungary, however, states that it had sent Safarov back to Azerbaijan
after receiving assurances from the Azerbaijani Justice Ministry that
Safarov's sentence, which included the possibility of parole after
25 years, would be enforced.
According to some reports, Safarov was extradited to Azerbaijan in
exchange for Azeri purchase of Hungarian securities worth Euro 2-3
billion, an information official Budapest denies.
~SHungarian Prime Minister is ~Smorally bankrupt~T and should resign
after admitting that he personally approved the transfer of the Azeri
axe murderer while knowing the likely consequences,~T the leader of
the opposition Socialists said earlier.
Attila Mesterhazy said it was clear from Orban~Rs comments at a
news conference on Tuesday September 11 that he had been aware that
Azerbaijan would release the life-sentenced Ramil Safarov after his
repatriation.
