Rep. Anna G. Eshoo (D-Palo Alto), Co-chair and Co-founder of the
Religious Minorities in the Middle East Caucus, released the following
statement regarding Azerbaijan's freeing of Ramil Safarov:
"I'm deeply concerned about the release of Ramil Safarov by the
Hungarian Government. Safarov, a former Azerbaijani military officer,
was sentenced to life in prison by a Hungarian court for the murder of
Armenian Gurgen Margaryan. This brutal hate crime took place during
a 2004 NATO program and was motivated by the worst kind of ignorance
and prejudice. Safarov's release dangerously undermines the rule
of law and peace throughout the region. The Azerbaijani government
should immediately reverse its decision to pardon Safarov."
