YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 7, ARMENPRESS: `Heritage' Party Deputy Chairman
Armen Martirosyan supports the tough stand of the Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan concerning Ramil Safarov's extradition. According to
Armenpress, on September 7 at the briefing with journalists the
`Heritage' representative spoke on the Azerbaijani assassin Ramil
Safarov's extradition by Hungary and its possible developments. `It is
already clear that Azerbaijan will never give up his target to end up
with Armenians. The recognition of Karabakh independence is the way,
which will enable Armenia keep protecting its national interests', -
he said.
Concerning the local developments Armen Martirosyan said that the
coming presidential elections are quite important in this context.
«Though in September we will have the elections of the local
self-governing bodies, we understand quite well that the presidential
elections are more important», - he said. Martirosyan thinks that
Raffi Hovhannisyan will take part in the presidential elections, but
he is not certain if Raffi Hovhannisyan participates as an opposition
united candidate or not. «It is possible that there will be other
candidates, but I do not think that it makes considerable impact on
«Heritage», - said Armen Martirosyan. Presidential elections in
Armenia will take place in February 2013.
Azerbaijani assassin Ramil Safarov, who axe-murdered Armenian officer
Gurgen Margaryan while sleeping, when they were participating in NATO
English Language Courses in Budapest, was sentenced to life
imprisonment without right to be pardoned for 30 years. Armenia held
up the diplomatic relations with Hungary, after Safarov was extradited
to Azerbaijan on August 31 2012 and was pardoned by the President
Aliyev. The international community comes with announcements
condemning Azerbaijan's action, which contradicts the international
legal norms. Hungary blamed Azerbaijan of breaking its promise.
