Opposition party appeals to President

The Board of the opposition Whole Azerbaijan Popular Front Party
(WAPFP) in its Thursday meeting adopted an appeal to President Ilham
Aliyev.

The document reads that the 10-year talks over settling the
Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Upper Garabagh have yielded no
positive results. “The party hopes that President Ilham Aliyev will
take into account the fact that this is a matter of moral importance
for the Azerbaijani people and disclose his position towards
preventing the Armenian officers’ upcoming visit to Baku,” the appeal
said.

The document also reads that if this takes place there will be no
need for protest actions, as it will be clear that the government
gives priority to the country’s national interests.
