The survey shows the majority of Hungarians are familiar with Ramil
Safarov's case and blame Azerbaijan for emerging tension.
The survey conducted by Szazadveg Foundation from Septemebr 7 to 12
showed that 94 percent of respondents were familiar with the story and
74 percent of Hungarians said the case was important from Hungary's
point of view, MTI agency reported.
Fifty-nine percent of the population believed the Azerbaijani
government was responsible for the situation that has developed,
while 32 percent blamed the Hungarian government.
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. And Armenia's President
Serzh Sargsyan announced on August 31 that Armenia is suspending its
diplomatic ties with Hungary.
