    ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT SPEAKER REFUSES TO VISIT HUNGARY

    YEREVAN. - The Armenian Parliament Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan will
    suspend his official visit to Hungary indefinitely. Abrahamyan planned
    to visit Hungary by the invitation of his Hungarian counterpart
    in late September. The suspension is linked to the extradition by
    the Hungarian authorities the murderer of the Armenian serviceman
    Gurgen Margaryan, Azerbaijani serviceman Ramil Safarov to Azerbaijan,
    parliamentary press service reports.

    As the Armenian News-NEWS.am has earlier informed, the murder had
    taken place in Budapest on Feb. 19, 2004, where the Armenian military
    serviceman was taking part in an English-language course organized
    by NATO Partnership for Peace program.

    In 2006, the Budapest court sentenced the Azerbaijani killer to life
    imprisonment, and without a chance for pardon for thirty years. And the
    reason for the brutal murder was simply that Margaryan was Armenian.
