18 April 2007 17:42 (UTC +04:00)

Classical Popular Front, Azerbaijan National Democratic and Independence Parties concluded an agreement on the establishment of Alliance for Democracy, APA reports.
The chief of Classic Popular Front Party (CPFP) Mirmahmud Miralioglu made a report on the principles of partnership at the meeting. He stated that the organization will be of consultation character and it is not preparation for the presidential elections to be held in 2008. The Alliance will try to cooperate with all the democratic forces for the establishment of democracy. Azerbaijan National Democratic Partyâ€™s chief Isgandar Hamidov said that opposition has fallen into a disgrace.
â€œToday opposition can not convince the nation with anything. The nation admits negatively the tension occurred between the parties. These parties avoid any partnership when enemy countries conclude agreements. We aim to gather all the parties togetherâ€, he said.
Hamidov said he does not exclude that the organization can be electoral bloc in future.
â€œThese issues will be debated at timeâ€, Hamidov said.
Independence Partyâ€™s chief Ahmad Oruj said that alliance for democracy will lean against national-democratic values.
â€œToday Azerbaijani opposition is decent. Some incline to Islamic line, others to Western line. And this alliance will represent Azerbaijani sideâ€, he said. /APA/
