With its decision to extradite Azerbaijani officer Ramil Safarov who
brutally killed Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan, Hungary threw down
the gauntlet not only to Armenia and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic,
but also to the progressive world.
"Today Azerbaijan is making a hero of a murderer and international
criminal who axed an Armenian serviceman thereby questioning and
giving a dare to the human values of his country as well," said Eduard
Sharmazanov, vice-speaker of the Armenian National Assembly.
Artsvik Minasyan, a lawmaker from the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation-Dashnaktsutyun, welcomes Serzh Sargsyan's decision to
suspend ties with Hungary though he finds it to be belated.
"We should have taken preventive measures to exclude the extradition.
This reveals the serious drawbacks of Armenia's foreign policy,"
he said.
Mr. Minasyan says Safarov's extradition was not a simple ceremony
of returning a criminal to his country. "This was indeed a murder
committed on ethnic grounds and it should receive an adequate response.
Nikol Pashinyan, an MP of the Armenian National Congress (HAK), says
Hungary's decision [to extradite Ramil Safarov] will directly affect
the Karabakh peace deal, fueling tension in the talks as Azerbaijan
does not consider peaceful settlement as a solution to the conflict.
By their decision to pardon Safarov and honor him as a national hero,
Azerbaijani authorities sent a massage to their army and people that
erasure of Armenians is a national heroism," he said
