`Zerkalo': Azerbaijanis were short-sighted in Safarov issue
14:46, 19 September, 2012
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 19, ARMENPRESS: In Ramil Safarov's case the
Azerbaijanis acted irrational and went too far. According to
Armenpress, it was stated by the analyst Rauf Mirkadirov in an article
published in the Azerbaijani Newspaper `Zerkalo'. According to the
analyst, the problem is not that Safarov was pardoned, as the assassin
can be pardoned in any country, but the fact that the Azerbaijanis
went too far.
`We gave a `national hero' and justified a person, whom the civilized
world considers to be a criminal. The Minister of Defense advanced him
in title and the state budget compensated his losses, that is, they
tried to justify the tragedy that took place in Budapest. It was an
obvious redundancy', - said Rauf Mirkadirov.
The analyst stated that if in Azerbaijan they wanted to `compensate'
Safarov's `losses', they could have found a businessman, a patriot,
who would have given Safarov even more money. `But with our irrational
conduct we strengthened the positions of the West's forces, which do
not want the development and prosperity of the Muslim world, a part of
which Azerbaijan is', - wrote the analyst Rauf Mirkadirov.
Mirkadirov condemned as well the opposition parties of Azerbaijan,
which signed under the governing party's claim against the bill
adopted in the European Parliament on Safarov's case. `They were
afraid of appearing in the minority. Otherwise, they would not get
moral support even from the Azerbaijani society', - says `Zerkalo'.
The Azerbaijani assassin Ramil Safarov, who axe-murdered the Armenian
officer Gurgen Margaryan while sleeping, when they were participating
in NATO English Language Courses in the capital of Hungary Budapest,
was sentenced to life imprisonment. On August 31 2012 Safarov was
extradited from Hungary to Azerbaijan. The Republic of Armenia
suspended diplomatic relations with Hungary.
