    ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT ADOPTS STATEMENT CONDEMNING SAFAROV'S EXTRADITION

    Armenia's National Assembly has adopted a statement condemning
    Hungary's decision to extradite Azerbaijani murderer Ramil Safarov
    with a vote 90 to 1.

    In connection with the extradition of Ramil Safarov who axed Armenian
    officer Gurgen Margaryan during a NATO training event in Budapest
    in 2004 and his pardoning by Azerbaijani President, the RA National
    Assembly announces;

    1. The Hungarian government also bears responsibility for the
    incident. The National Assembly condemns the behavior of the
    Hungarian authorities and suspends official relations with Hungary
    on a parliamentary level.

    2 With its step, Azerbaijan is again threatening the regional security
    and deepening the atmosphere of hatred and enmity towards Armenians,
    violating human rights enshrined by international documents, attempting
    to abort the negotiations over the Karabakh peace deal and to frustrate
    the efforts of the international community [especially those of the
    OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs] in the negotiation process.

    3. The atmosphere of hatred towards Armenians [deeply rooted on a
    state level in Azerbaijan] and the recent developments prove that
    the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic cannot be under Azerbaijani jurisdiction.

    4. The National Assembly urges the parliaments of all countries
    adhering to democratic values to condemn the deal concluded between
    Azerbaijan and Hungary on August 31, 2012.

    5. The National Assembly expects adequate response from international
    parliamentary organizations and appropriate actions.

    The document was adopted with slight changes.
