Hungarian Foreign Ministry’s consulate service issued a statement for those who want to visit Armenia.

The statement says Hungarian foreign ministry has not received any information suggesting that Hungarians in Armenia have been discriminated against since that country’s suspending diplomatic ties with Hungary, MTI agency reported.

The Ministry said Armenian authorities have not introduced restrictions for Hungarian visitors, and visas to Armenia continue to be available. However, Hungarian citizens were warned that consular affairs are not available in Armenia and they must apply to other embassy of EU member states in Yerevan.

Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier that Ramil Safarov, a lieutenant in the Azerbaijani military, was extradited on August 31 from Hungary, where he was serving a life sentence—and with no expression of either regret or remorse—for the premeditated axe murder of Armenian lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan, in his sleep, during a NATO Partnership for Peace program in Budapest back in 2004.

As expected, Ramil Safarov’s return to Baku was welcomed, as was his act of murder, by the officials of president Ilham Aliyev’s government and much of Azerbaijani society, and the Azerbaijani president immediately granted him a pardon.

And Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan announced on August 31 that Armenia is suspending its diplomatic ties with Hungary.
