YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 10, ARMENPRESS: A group of deputies of Lithuanian
National Assembly expressed their concern about the extradition of
Ramil Safarov and his pardoning by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev
and spread their declaration.
As Armenpress was informed from Tigran Balayan, the press secretary of
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the granting of pardon to Safarov
who hacked Armenian serviceman to death may be provocative for
other crimes. The decision of Hungarian and Azerbaijani governments
contradicts the international law norms and may become a barrier for
the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh issue. Lithuanian deputies Algis
Kasheta, Dalia Kuodite, Ketutis Masiulis and Piatra Luomanas have
signed under the declaration.
Azeri perpetrator Ramil Safarov hacked Armenian serviceman Gurgen
Margaryan with an axe during English training courses in frameworks
of NATO in Budapest on 19 February, 2004. On August 31, 2012 on the
decision of Hungarian authorities Safarov was extradited to Baku,
Azerbaijan where he was pardoned by the President Ilham Aliyev.
Armenia suspended diplomatic relations with Hungaria.
