French senator's report on extradition and pardoning of Ramil Safarov is entitled "Hungary has shortage of freedom, human rights and European values"

Speaker of the Armenian parliament Hovik Abrahamyan received today French Senator, mayor of Bourg-les-Valence, Bernard Piras.

As press-service of the Armenian parliament reported, Abrahamyan highly appreciated the current level of the Armenian-French relations.

For his part, Mr Piras said that they have always been next to the people of Armenia and contributed much in the matter of adoption of the law on recognition of the Armenian genocide by France. He also added it is very much important to develop and enhance inter-parliamentary relations between the two countries.

Touching on extradition and pardoning of Ramil Safarov, Hovik Abrahamyan said that in Azerbaijan the anti-Armenian hysteria has been propagated at the state level. This incident proved once again that Karabakh cannot be within Azerbaijan where murder is encouraged at the state level.

In this context, Piras said that he was charged to prepare a report on actions of Hungary linked with Safarov's extradition and he entitled the report "Hungary has shortage of freedom, human rights and European values."
