    Azerbaijan, Baku, 26 August / Trend News corr. E.Babayev /The
    opposition Democratic Party of Azerbaijan (DPA) made a statement
    which condemns the decision by the Russian Federation Council which
    recognizes the independence in Abkhazia and Ossetia. "Such a decision
    is interference into the internal affairs in Georgia, as well as is
    a step which contradicts to international law norms and opens way to
    confrontation in the world," is stated in the statement by DPA.

    On 25 August, the Russian Federation Council unanimously voted to
    make an appeal to President to recognize the independence of South
    Ossetia and Abkhazia. Later, the State Duma has unanimously supported
    the appeal regarding recognition of the independence of South Ossetia
    and Abkhazia.

    The step taken by Moscow has demonstrated that it caused the recent
    discord and hostility amongst nations, who live in the post Soviet
    area, is stated in the statement.

    DPA call on the world community and international organizations to take
    into consideration Russia's actions, which contradict international
    law norms, as well as to take more rational measures to keep security
    of new independent states. DPA considers necessity to exclude Russia
    from the OSCE Minsk Group, taking into consideration the fact that
    Moscow stands behind the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, and is interested
    side in the conflict.

    DPA calls on the CIS member-countries to take into consideration
    Russia's recent actions, which violated the requirements of the CIS
    Regulation. DPA calls on Azerbaijanis and political forces to take
    measures to keep independence and territorial integrity.

    DPA was founded by Jalaloglu in 1991. The party took a radical
    position against the Government until 2007. In January 2007, the
    party took a new political course and improved relations with the
    authorities. Protesting against such an action Rasul Guliyev, the
    ex-chairman, and his supporters left the party and founded the Open
    Society party
