BBC: Armenians hold anti-Hungary rally over Azeri killer pardon
02 September 2012 | 01:54 | FOCUS News Agency
London. Hundreds of Armenians have protested outside Hungary's
consulate in Yerevan in a row over a convicted killer, BBC informs.
The demonstrators burned Hungarian flags and pelted the mission with eggs.
Earlier this week Hungary allowed an Azeri soldier who murdered an
Armenian to return to Azerbaijan to serve the remainder of his
sentence. But Baku pardoned him and set him free.
Armenia, a long-time enemy of neighbour Azerbaijan, severed
diplomatic ties with Hungary in response.
Armenia and Azerbaijan fought a bitter war over the Nagorno-Karabakh
enclave in the early 1990s.
Killer Ramil Safarov was flown to Baku and freed, despite
Azerbaijan's assurances that his life sentence would be enforced.
