Now that the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs and the OSCE CiO PR Andzej
Kasprzyk have met with the foreign ministers Eduard Nalbandyan of
Armenia and Elmar Mammedyarov of Azerbaijan after Ramil Safarov's case,
discussed the recent developments in the region and then gave birth
to a meaningless statement in which they expressed their deep concern
over the harm of Safarov's pardon and attempts to glorify his crime
to the atmosphere of confidence between the sides, and announced,
putting an equal mark between Armenia and Azerbaijan, that they will
continue to keep in touch with the sides to ease tension and ensure
progress in the negotiations, it is crisp and clear that the OSCE Minsk
Group and their authorizing countries are unlikely to do anything to
"build confidence" between the sides.
Obviously, not only Hungary is responsible for the outrageous
extradition of the assassin Ramil Safarov to Azerbaijan. The
responsibility and shame is shared by at least the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs and their countries, the United States, Russia and France.
For over 15 years the Armenian refugees of Azerbaijan have been
trying to draw the attention of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs to
the outrageous fact that the issue of Armenian refugees is not on
the agenda of the talks over Karabakh. It is not there in terms of
further existence of refugees, assessment of the racist policy of
Azerbaijan that resulted in refugees and making relevant decisions.
>From Sumgait till 1990, for two years, Armenian refugees of Baku,
Kirovabad, Shaqi and other parts of Azerbaijan, narrowly escaped
from thirty-forty or more packs of bounty hunters. Many of them got
killed, they lost their property. It goes without saying that the
outrageous judicial system of the USSR, or in this case we can also
say Russia, encouraged the longevity of those bloody killers until
all the Armenians left Azerbaijan and were no longer accessible.
Throughout the USSR, yet encouraged by the world, in fact, these
ethnic killers are heroes for their own ethnic communities, giving
birth to dreams of new heroic ethnic killers. Ramil Safarov is one
of them. He dreamt of killing an Armenian and was finally able to
meet one in Budapest.
The ethnic heroes of Azerbaijan of the past 24 years are groups that
hack people to death in sleep, rape old ladies, torture children to
death, burn helpless and armless people, rob people's homes. These
heroes did not dare to kill and rob elderly people when they
were alone. They went in groups, chanting "death to Armenians" to
harshness. The slogan "Death to Armenians" decorated their bandanas
which they wore proudly in all the towns of Azerbaijan, including
capital Baku. Hacking and slaughtering Armenians is the job which is
highly appreciated and praised by the government. Ramil Safarov is
only one of them. He also dreamt of death of Armenians but unlike
the rest Ramil Safarov was courageous. He was all alone when he
entered the room of the sleeping Armenian young man and killed him
with an axe. Certainly, it was 5:30 in the morning, and the Armenian
young man was in deep sleep and could not resist him but entering a
room where an Armenian is alone and in sleep is real courage for any
member of those packs. Ramil Safarov wanted to be a hero like those
cowardly sons of a bitch in Sumgait, Baku, Kirovabad who are the
pillars of the state called "Azerbaijan". These scoundrels supported
by the authorities and praised for their crimes who killed hundreds of
Armenians, mutilated thousands, sent into insanity tens of thousands,
have not been discussed in the context of regulation of the Karabakh
issue, including by the Minks Group which thus has contributed to
their abject heroism. Denial of this explicit anti-Armenian racism
propagated by the Azerbaijani authorities is the most significant
factor impeding the peace process and mutual confidence of the sides.
Having consistently neglected the Armenian refugees for 20 years,
intentionally avoided revelation of the real cause and effect relations
of emergence of Armenian refugees in the state called Azerbaijan,
failed to address the practice of praising killers of Armenians for
24 years, steady anti-Armenian hatred instilled by the authorities,
shut an eye on the destruction of Armenian khachkars in Djolfa and
construction of a military polygon there, the Minsk Group contributes
to encouragement of ethnocide by Azerbaijani scoundrels.
So, I regret to express my deep concern about the damage to the peace
talks and mutual confidence building caused by the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs' maneuvering behavior.
