Armenia–Hungary relations refer to bilateral relations between Armenia and Hungary . Armenia is represented in Hungary through its embassy in Vienna , Austria , and an honorary consulate in Budapest , Hungary. Hungary is represented in Armenia through its embassy in Tbilisi , Georgia , and an honorary consulate in Yerevan , Armenia.
Background [ edit ]
Since the end of World War II , the two countries were under communist domination as both Hungary (Hungarian People's Republic ) and Armenia (Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic ) was a satellite state and the constituent republic of the Soviet Union respectively.
Diplomatic relations between the two nations started at the end of the Cold War , mainly with the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
There are around 15,000 people of Armenian descent living in Hungary .
Severing of diplomatic relations [ edit ]
On 31 August 2012, Armenia severed relations with Hungary following the extradition of Ramil Safarov – convicted of murdering Armenian Lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan in Hungary in 2004. Also rumors spread this was carried out in exchange for a $7 million bribe.[1] [2] [3] pardoned upon returning to Azerbaijan, and was treated as a national hero: Safarov was promoted to the military rank of major, received an apartment, and was given back pay for his 8 years of imprisonment.[4] European Convention on Human Rights . European Court of Human Rights recognized governments of Hungary and Azerbaijan as respondents in this case.[5]
In Yerevan, protesters threw tomatoes at the building of Hungary's honorary consulate and tore down the flag of Hungary . The United States also criticised the decision to free Safarov.[6] Eduard Nalbandyan said that "Armenia [was] ready to settle relations with Hungary, but Budapest should undertake steps".[7]
Restoration of relations [ edit ]
Diplomatic relations were restored on 2 December 2022 and now are considered as good and friendly.[8] Vahagn Khachaturyan undertook a visit to Budapest , the second visit of an Armenian president since 1989.
