Yerevan will be entirely responsible for any possible provocation
against Azeri diplomats and citizens outside their country,
Azerbaijan Foreign Ministry spokesman Elman Abdullayev told reporters
on Wednesday.
Azerbaijan has asked all the countries where it has a diplomatic
mission to step up security at its embassies, the official recalled.
Armenian terrorist organizations were threatening Azeri diplomatic
missions and citizens in foreign countries, Azeri state media outlets
said earlier.
According to a document received by the Azerbaijan Embassy in Hungary
from an Armenian terrorist organization, ASALA Fighters, on September
3, the organization is targeting Azeri diplomats, Azeri students
studying abroad, business people and diaspora activists, and claims
they will be killed.
The latest spat in the relations between Baku and Yerevan was caused
by the extradition by Hungarian authorities to Azerbaijan of officer
Ramil Safarov sentenced by a court in Budapest to life in prison for
killing Armenian officer Gurgen Markarian.
On August 31, 2012, Safarov was extradited by Hungary to Azerbaijan
and pardoned by his country's President Ilham Aliyev on the same day.
