Swedish MPs join the international condemnation of the glorification
of Azeri axe-murderer Ramil Safarov's crime. An official letter signed
by MPs of different political parties in the Swedish Parliament, the
Riksdag, has been sent to the Hungarian Ambassador in Sweden, Mr.
Gabor Szentivanyi. The letter reads as follows:
`H.E Ambassador Gabor Szentivanyi
Embassy of Hungary in Sweden
Honourable Ambassador,
It has come to our knowledge that the President of Azerbaijan has
pardoned Ramil Safarov following his extradition from Hungary. We will
join the international condemnation of the glorification of the
terrible crime which Mr Safarov has committed and we are deeply
concerned by the consequences that the action will have on the
relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
The conduct of Baku has been condemned by several international
instances, among others UN Secretary General, EU President, the
President of the European Parliament, the Chairman of the Council of
Europe as well as the governments of the permanent chairmen of the
OSCE Minsk Group, denouncing it as incompatible with the ongoing peace
process.
Mr. Ambassador, we as Member of the Parliament of Sweden wish to find
out how Your Government, a member of the European Union, will now
react to this breach of rules and agreements and demand Baku to honour
international laws according to which the extradition was performed.
News media and Hungarian opposition claim that Azeri financial
assurances to the Hungarian Government played a crucial role in the
extradition which has now harmed the peace process conducted by OSCE
Minsk Group. We hope that the Hungarian Government can clarify this
issue in a proper manner.
At the same time we hope that Your Government will take decisive
measures for reprimanding Baku for their breach of international laws,
endangering the fragile peace process of Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as
for having dishonored the agreement made between the Justice
Departments of respective country.
We look forward to Your response and views on the subject.'
