Movement of Hungary said they “learnt with shock and surprise” last
weekend about the extradition of Azerbaijani murderer Ramil Safarov
and his later pardon, which “has offended the Armenian nation greatly.”
“We condemn this provocative step completely, and hereby we apologize
to the Armenian nation on behalf of our members for the offending
action by the government of Hungary. Even though the cabinet
considers the extradition fully aligned with the international law,
not foreseeing this step’s diplomatic and international political
consequences is the certain sign of incompetence in foreign policy,”
the statement says.
“We protest against and reject that President Viktor Orban and his
cabinet would sacrifice Hungary’s honor for the promise of billions
of dollars, or any other real or perceived benefits. Therefore,
we call on Orban to announce the reasons for his or his cabinet’s
decision on extraditing Ramil Safarov,” it says.
The movement also addressed questions to the cabinet, demanding
detailed explanation on the Safarov extradition.
