Yerevan/Mediamax/. Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan
said today that Baku's attempts to justify the pardoning of Ramil
Safarov by the provisions of Strasburg Convention "are groundless and
as monstrous as the decision to release and honor the killer who has
been sentenced to life in prison."
In reply to the question of Armenpress, he said that "this outrageous
act of the Azeri leadership runs counter not only to the humanistic
goals of the Convention but also to the spirit of the European human
rights system."
Shavarsh Kocharyan went on adding that the efforts of Azerbaijan to
cast a shadow on international legal norms and adapt them to its racist
"system of values" are doomed to failure.
