    ORBAN IS STILL BLAMED FOR SAFAROV'S EXTRADITION

    YEREVAN

    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.
