In a letter to H.E. Janos Áder, the president of Hungary, His Holiness
Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia, expressed his
deep concern and dismay concerning the extradition of Azeri murderer
Ramil Safarov (who murdered an Armenian Lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan in
Budapest, back in 2004 and was serving a life sentence) to Azerbaijan,
and for the pardon he was granted by the Azerbaijani president.
Catholicos Aram I said that this act is a "flagrant violation of the
international law and principles of justice" and it has "generated a
huge wave of frustration and protest among the Armenians in Armenia
and the world-wide Diaspora".
His Holiness reminds the president of Hungary that "political interests
must not undermine the imperative of justice and human dignity"
and that "such a behavior does not help to promote good relations
and close co-operation among nations and states".
The letter of His Holiness was presented to the Ambassador of
Hungary to Lebanon by a delegation of clergy representing the Holy
See of Cilicia.
