YEREVAN, OCTOBER 2, ARMENPRESS: The passions over Ramil Safarov's
extradition in Hungary hasn't calmed down. Authorities have become
a target of criticism for the opposition. Member of the Parliament
Laszlo Kovacs didn't miss the opportunity to pose questions,
make announcements and critical comments. As reports Armenpress,
referring to Hungarian international Politics, both the foreign
and the justice ministries had opposed the move, arguing that the
murderer was celebrated as a national hero in his homeland and would
be immediately released upon his repatriation.
Socialist MP Laszlo Kovacs also remarked that Hungary had "meddled"
with the conflict of Azerbaijan and Armenia. In response, Orban
said that the decision had not been motivated by the promise of any
short-term benefits. Crossing the border on political correctness
Orban added "We would have done the same if an Armenian had killed
an Azerbaijani. Hungary should follow its own interests rather than
those of Armenia or Azerbaijan"
The Hungarian authorities repatriated Azerbaijani national Safarov
on August 31 on the understanding that he would continue to serve the
life sentence he received in February 2004 for murdering an Armenian
in Hungary.
Armenia suspended diplomatic relations with Hungary on August 31 when
life-sentenced perpetrator Ramil Safarov was extradited and pardoned
in Azerbaijani. Safarov hacked to death Armenian serviceman Gurgen
Margaryan during NATO's training in Budapest. Azerbaijan has deceived
Hungary and broken its written promise to keep the murderer in prison
after Safarov's extradition to Azerbaijan.
Hungarian-Azerbaijani blameful bargain was condemned by international
organizations, countries and political important figures.
