The acting foreign minister of the Nagorno-Karabakh (NKR) Republic,
Vassily Atajanyan, has addressed a letter to OSCE Chairman-in-Office,
Ireland's Minister for Foreign Affairs Eamon Gilmore.
He has expressed concerns over the extradition and pardon of Ramil
Safarov, criticizing the Azerbaijani authorities for failing to meet
any commitment.
His full letter is below:
"I state with regret that the official Baku again undertakes actions
to undermine the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement peace process.
The extradition to Azerbaijan and the subsequent presidential decree of
pardon for Ramil Safarov, who was convicted and sentenced to life in
prison in Hungary for the murder of a man asleep, is another proof of
the fact that Azerbaijan implements and encourages the policy of hatred
and fascism towards Armenians at a state level, which is a continuation
of the Armenian pogroms and slaughter in Sumgait, Baku, Kirovabad,
Maragha and many other towns and villages populated by Armenians.
Azerbaijan has once more demonstrated that it is not going to meet
any commitments, including international ones, and its primary goal
is perpetration of another genocide against the Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic (Artsakh) and annihilation of its population. Thereupon, the
correctness of the path chosen by the people of Nagorno Karabakh on
building an independent, democratic and powerful state is reconfirmed".
The OSCE and its separate members will condemn Azerbaijan and will
undertake corresponding measures aimed at putting a constraint on that
country to abandon the destructive policy and the ideology of Nazism.
For our part, we reconfirm our commitment to the peace settlement
of the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict and at the same time state that
we are able to defend our country and in case of encroachment on its
freedom and independence we will be able to rebuff the aggressor"
