SARDAR JALALOGLU: ADP WILL RUN FOR THE ELECTIONS IRRESPECTIVE OF OTHER PARTIES', ESPECIALLY AZADLIQ ALLIANCE'S POSITION

"Azerbaijan Democratic Party passed a decision on running for the
forthcoming presidential elections. ADP will participate in the
elections irrespective of the position of other parties, especially
of Azadliq alliance," chairman of Azerbaijan Democratic Party (ADP)
Sardar Jalaloglu told APA.
He said that the party's new course is constructive opposition and
considers that constructivism should reveal itself not only in the
opposition's attitude towards opposition, but towards the authorities
as well.
"We consider that the opposition should run for presidential elections
with a single candidate. We will do our best for this.
Otherwise, we will run for the elections in the form of a bloc. The
parties close to ADP will unite and will have its candidate. If it
fails, we will run for the elections with our candidate," he said.
Sardar Jalaloglu said ADP officials consider that constructive
opposition should not only envisage brawling and fighting with the
authorities in the streets, but also cooperating with them.
"All international organizations call on Armenia and Azerbaijan to
cooperate concerning Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Mutual relations,
but not confrontation and brawl should be established between the
authorities and the opposition. This is neither my, nor anyone else's
invention. This is characteristic of the whole world, in most cases
the authorities and opposition parties have set up a coalition, and
managed to make some changes in the society. Our main aim is to bring
the relations in Azerbaijan to a new stage and change the political
situation. That's why we have determined our course properly. As ADP
is an independent party, it pursues an independent line," he said.
