Relations between Azerbaijan and Hungary continue to develop as
before and the note presented by the Hungarian Foreign Ministry
to Azerbaijan on Ramil Safarov's case has not effected bilateral
relations, Azerbaijani Ambassador to Hungary Vilayat Guliyev said in
Baku on Friday.
"Despite [Armenian terrorist organisation] ASALA's threats, the
Azerbaijani Embassy continues to operate as normal, but with enhanced
security measures," he said at a meeting of heads of diplomatic
missions of Azerbaijan.
As evidence of good relations, Guliyev brought up the meeting of the
intergovernmental committee scheduled for October in Budapest.
The ambassador said that the Azerbaijani embassy continued to receive
threatening letters which he said had been transmitted to the Hungarian
authorities for investigation, Azeri news website Trend reported.
Armenia decided to break diplomatic ties on August 31 after Hungary
had transferred Azerbaijani national Ramil Sahib Safarov to his home
country to continue serving his sentence of life imprisonment which
he received in February 2004 for murdering an Armenian in Budapest.
On September 2 Foreign State Secretary Zsolt Nemeth summoned
Azerbaijan's Ambassador to Hungary into his office to hand over
a diplomatic note and inform him that Hungary considered Safari's
release unacceptable.
