    A call to the President of International European Movement to demand
    from the CoE to suspend Azerbaijan's membership

    The European Movement in Armenia addressed an open letter to the
    President of International European Movement Jo Leinen, Chairman of
    working group of International European Movement on Enlargement and
    Neighborhood Ksenija Milenkovic, President of European Movement in
    Hungary Norbert Kroo and President of European Movement in Azerbaijan,
    Ramin Hajili.

    `Dear Presidents,
    It was a huge disappointment to receive the information about the
    extradition of Ramil Safarov by Hungarian authorities. As we
    predicted, the president of Azerbaijan pardoned the killer immediately
    and the Azerbaijani society honored the killer as a hero.

    All of us, as the members of European Movement, are honored to follow
    and spread the European values. During our mission we appreciate our
    role in our societies and nations being the locomotive of European
    integration process. While being a member of EU and NATO, Hungary, by
    extraditing Ramil Safarov, betrayed all these values, discredited the
    European reputation and changed the justice with caviar.

    Not aiming to comment further, European Movement of Armenia rejects to
    send a delegation to Baku, Azerbaijan for a meeting planned for
    November 2012. We have nothing to do in a country where the killers
    become heroes even by the society.

    European Movement in Armenia supports the decision of the President of
    the Republic of Armenia on cutting diplomatic ties with Hungary.

    We call the President of International European Movement to make an
    immediate statement, to assess the actions of Hungarian authorities,
    to demand from the Council of Europe to suspend the membership of
    Azerbaijan and to demand from EU to drop the assistance provided to
    Azerbaijan. We expect the same from our colleagues in European
    Movements in Hungary and Azerbaijan.'
