BUDAPEST. - The Armenian community of Hungary fully supports the
decision of the decision of the Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan to
suspend diplomatic relations with Hungary, although, the community
will suffer the most, Vice Chairman of the "Armenian National Autonomy
of Hungary" Nikoghos Hakobyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
According to him, Hungarian society is shocked by the decision of
the Hungarian government regarding the Azerbaijani murderer Ramil
Safarov's extradition to Baku and his immediate release.
In response to how the Hungarian government reacts to Azerbaijan's
statements that the latter is not going to make investments in Hungary,
Hakobyan said that the authorities are well aware about it, but it
changes nothing.
As for the actions by Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora in achieving
justice, Hakobyan believes that the issue is too difficult to settle
at the moment.
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 Azerbaijani president's
administration and much of Azerbaijani society, and the Azerbaijani
president immediately granted him a pardon.
Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan announced on August 31 that Armenia
is suspending its diplomatic ties with Hungary.
