    Armenia cuts ties with Hungary over Azerbaijan killer pardon


    Armenia says it is severing diplomatic ties with Hungary after the
    release of an Azeri army officer convicted of murdering an Armenian
    soldier. The Azeri serviceman, Ramil Safarov, was given a life
    sentence for hacking Armenian Gurgen Markarian to death with an axe in
    2004 in Budapest.

    The Hungarian authorities said they had returned Safarov to his
    homeland only after receiving assurances from the Baku government that
    his sentence would be enforced.
