Hungary must immediately demand from Azerbaijan to return Ramil
Safarov, states Slovak National Council's First Speaker František
Mikloško's statement, which is publicized by the Forum of Armenian
Associations of Europe Press Secretariat.
"Sadly, today's Hungarian government decided to change justice with
petrodollars and returned the criminal to Azerbaijan.
[Yet] I believe it is not yet too late for Hungary to at least
partially correct its mistake and demand Safarov's return by Azerbaijan
and to return him to Hungarian prison.
The Armenian government severed its diplomatic ties with Hungary by
stating that such actions will slow down and even stop the settlement
of the [Nagorno-] Karabakh [peace] process.
Those who have been to Karabakh understand very well that it is
suffice to insert Nagorno-Karabakh into Azerbaijan for just one day
and its 160,000 citizens would be killed, and the rest of the European
countries might turn a blind eye thanks to petrodollars.
Today it is necessary for Hungary to immediately demand from Azerbaijan
to return Ramil Safarov because of not carrying out the arrangements,
and the European states need to ultimately comprehend that the
acceptance of Karabakh's independence is the sole unique guarantee so
that similar incidents will no longer repeat," František Mikloško
noted in his statement.
Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier that Ramil Safarov, a lieutenant
in the Azerbaijani military, was extradited on August 31 from Hungary,
where he was serving a life sentence--and with no expression of
either regret or remorse--for the premeditated axe murder of Armenian
lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan, in his sleep, during a NATO Partnership
for Peace program in Budapest back in 2004.
As expected, Ramil Safarov's return to Baku was welcomed, as was
his act of murder, by the officials of president Ilham Aliyev's
government and much of Azerbaijani society, and the Azerbaijani
president immediately granted him a pardon.
And Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan announced on August 31 that
Armenia is suspending its diplomatic ties with Hungary.
