    AZERBAIJANI AUTHORITIES WERE LATE TO UNDERSTAND THAT SAFAROV'S DEAL WAS A MISTAKE, THOMAS DE WAAL THINKS

    Mediamax, Armenia
    July 2 2013

    Yerevan /Mediamax/. Senior associate at Russia and Eurasia Program
    at Carnegie Endowment, author of "Black Garden" book Thomas de Waal
    thinks that the Azerbaijani authorities were late to understand that
    the deal on extradition and pardon of Ramil Safarov who killed an
    Armenian officer was a mistake.

    During a press conference in Yerevan today, the British expert said
    that he is a hero for many people in Azerbaijan but there are also
    people who "were horrified by what happened", Mediamax reports.

    Touching upon the public moods in Azerbaijan, Thomas de Waal said
    that the Karabakh thematic is usually "not the first and the second
    and even not the fifth topic for talks".

    "I wouldn't say that the Azerbaijani society is boiling and bubbling
    over Karabakh. At the same time, however, the young generation is
    more aggressive to the issue than their fathers and grandfathers",
    noted Thomas de Waal.
