Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The Azerbaijani parliamentarians have passed today
a statement in connection with the European Parliament's resolution
from 13 September 2012, which condemns the transfer officer Ramil
Safarov by Hungary to Azerbaijan and his further clemency by the
President of Azerbaijan.
"It is deeply regrettable the ongoing attempts to give a political
color to purely legal matter relating to Azerbaijani officer Ramil
Safarov. These attempts demonstrate openly that some political
circles in Europe are under the influence of Armenian propaganda,
and in many cases continue to apply double standards to the issues
related to Azerbaijan," the document says.
According to the statement, being an active member of the Council
of Europe, Azerbaijan fully cooperates with many countries of
the European continent in the provision of legal assistance in
criminal matters. Such a reaction of Armenia that has occupied 20%
of Azerbaijan, resulting in about 1 million Azerbaijanis became
refugees and IDPs, was quite predictable.
"In addition, it causes surprise the European Parliament's position
on this issue. In particular, because extradition and clemency of
Safarov were carried out on a legal basis," the statement says.
Simultaneously, the statement notes that at various times international
terrorists Varujan Karapetyan, Suren Nairyan, Monte Melkonian, Gevorg
Gezalyan, Vazgen Sisilyan, Samvel Babayan, found guilty of blood
crimes that caused numerous casualties were pardoned, extradited to
Armenia and declared national heroes by Yerevan.
"Of course, we're not going to put Azeri officer in line with these
international terrorists," the document stresses.
Besides, it stresses that the one-sided and biased EP resolution was
one of the factors behind the surge of tension of the situation around
the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno Garabagh conflict.
"In this regard, Milli Majlis reiterates that the biggest source
of threat to the South Caucasus region is to keep the Azerbaijani
territories occupied by Armenian armed units, and the attempts of the
aggressor country to present international law for its view and ignore
the will of the world community," the parliaments statement says.
The Azerbaijani MPs believe that all these attempts are aimed
at maintaining the status quo on the Garabagh issue, delaying
negotiations on Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno Garabagh conflict on
the part of Yerevan.
Parliament reiterated that Azerbaijan adheres strictly to the rules
and principles of international law. The Azerbaijani MPs have urged
the European Parliament to make weighted decisions on issues related
to Azerbaijan, and not to be on the bit of Armenian propaganda.
