"The election activeness is not felt now in Azerbaijan", said deputy chairman of the Open Society Party Yaqub Abbasov.
He noted that it is senseless of speak of equality among candidates when they are not provided with normal conditions.

"In this situation, it should be admitted that working president Ilham Aliyev has no rivals and no alternative among the current seven candidates. I do not want to offend other candidates but it a reality.

Naturally, if the leader of our party Rasul Quliyev took part, the election situation would have been different. He could have become a real rival to Ilham Aliyev and it would be possible to speak of equality", noted he.

Abbasov also added that the party does not intend to take part in the presidential elections in any form.
