Ramil Safarov's case to be discussed at Euronest Parliamentary Assembly
Yerevan/Mediamax/. Member of the European Parliament Dimitar Stoyanov
is going to discuss the extradition and pardoning of Ramil Safarov
within the Parliamentary Assembly of the Eastern Partnership Euronest.
Dimitar Stoyanov said this in his interview to Mediamax.
"I am going to discuss the issue with my colleagues, particularly with
Kristian Vigenin, who is Co-President of the Euronest Parliamentary
Assembly and Chairman of the EP Delegation to the Euronest PA. As
you know, Euronest delegation adopts reports on the developments
with partner-countries. I will table an amendment on this report
which will mention this case as a bad example from the part of the
EU member-state," he said.
Dimitar Stoyanov said the Hungarian government has made a mistake by
extraditing Ramil Safarov to Azerbaijan.
"Transferred convicted persons are not forgone to be pardoned and
freed. It's a duty for each EU member-state to serve as an example
for all other states, especially our partners - Eastern Partnership
countries. They should give an example that the rule of law and court
decisions are above everything else," the Bulgarian member of the
European Parliament Dimitar Stoyanov said.
