YEREVAN. - Permanent representatives from nineteen OSCE-member states
will conduct a situation monitoring in Armenia and Azerbaijan.
They already are in the Armenian capital, Yerevan, where they were
received by President Serzh Sargsyan.
The representatives will visit Azerbaijan on September 10-11.
Along the lines of their tours, the monitors will meet with government,
political party, and civil society representatives. And the objective
of their visits is to get familiar with the current situation and to
exchange views on the ongoing processes in the region.
To note, the OSCE representatives' earlier-expected visit has coincided
with the growing interest in the region, specifically in terms of
the developments following Ramil Safarov's extradition to Azerbaijan,
where he was granted pardon.
Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier that Ramil Safarov, a lieutenant
in the Azerbaijani military, was extradited on August 31 from Hungary,
where he was serving a life sentence-and with no expression of
either regret or remorse-for the premeditated axe murder of Armenian
lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan, in his sleep, during a NATO Partnership
for Peace program in Budapest back in 2004.
As expected, Ramil Safarov's return to Baku was welcomed, as was
his act of murder, by the officials of president Ilham Aliyev's
government and much of Azerbaijani society, and the Azerbaijani
president immediately granted him a pardon.
And Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan announced on August 31 that
Armenia is suspending its diplomatic ties with Hungary.
