  Politician slams international reaction to Safarov release as inadequate September 6, 2012 - 16:45 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - ARF Dashnaktsutyun’s Armenian Cause Political Affairs Office Director Kiro Manoyan slammed the international response to extradition and release of Azeri assassin Ramil Safarov as inadequate. “None of the international assessments reflected full scope of the problem,” Manoyan said. “The problem lies not only in the extradition and pardon of a murderer, but also in the fact that the international community failed to characterize the killing of an Armenian officer as a hate murder, with Baku’s heroization of the criminal to follow. The politician expressed concern over the recent statement of Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian. “I’m afraid, that Armenian authorities will find current international response to be satisfactory to further halt the wave of international protest,” Manoyan said.
