    In connection with the extradition and presidential pardon for Ramil
    Safarov, Acting Foreign Minister of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
    Vassily Atajanyan addressed a letter to the OSCE Chairman-in-Office,
    Ireland's Minister for Foreign Affairs Eamon Gilmore.

    The letter reads as follows - `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'.

    It notes that `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 letter cherishes hope that `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' -
    the letter notes.
