Opposition leader: Coalition of Azerbaijani opposition is unrealistic

“I believe that the creation of a coalition of Azerbaijani opposition is somewhat unrealistic,” Chairman of opposition Democratic Party of Azerbaijan Sardar Jalaloglu said.

"Representatives of political parties fail to do it because of their own interests and intrigues between them in the past,” he said.

Unified opposition candidate  for the elections is more real, the DPA leader said.

"We have already held talks on this issue and we can say that the main opposition forces support this idea. I think that the parties which we have proposed this format will create the appropriate committee within a few days and the process of defining common candidates will start,” he added.

“After this different configurations of the opposition forces, which will support those candidates, might be formed.”

"But I think that these configurations will not be a union which will cover the entire opposition, because many parties were against each other with different charges, which does not allow the opposition to take part in the upcoming parliamentary elections with a single coalition," the DPA chairman explained.

"The Azerbaijani opposition should understand one thing - we need to solve our problems," he said.
