Azerbaijan, Baku, 14 March /corr. TrendNews I.Alizade / The Group
of MPs 'Musavat', which represents the opposition in Azerbaijan
Parliament, requires that the Government (Cabinet of Ministers)
should resign.
"The only way to improve the activities of the Government is for the
resignation of the Cabinet of Ministers," said the member of Group
of MPs 'Musavat', Panah Huseyin at the meeting of the Parliament.
On 14 March the Government of Azerbaijan made a report at the
Parliament with regards to the socio-economic development in 2007.
Huseyin sharply criticized the report provided by the Prime Minister
of Azerbaijan, Artur Rasizade.
"Today the Parliament is discussing the issue of trust in the
Government. I think that there are no grounds for trust in the
Government. In 2007 the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh territory of
Azerbaijan was not released. No steps were taken to resolve the
socio-economic problems. The social situation of the underprivileged
society, pensioners and disabled people became worse as compared to
2006. In 2007 the quality of life decreased. In 2008 the situation
was further worsened. The number described with regards to the
newly-created jobs does not correspond to reality. Therefore, the
current Government should resign and the Cabinet of Ministers should
be re-formed," the MP said.
In reply, the Chairman of Azerbaijan Parliament, Oktay Asadov, said
that opposition cannot positively assess the work done in Azerbaijan.
"I consider that this year, a serious approach will be demonstrated to
review the Government's activities, but the opposition did not change
its image and still sees everything in gloomy tones," he added. '
Another opposition member MP, Fazil Gazanfaroglu, said that
changes should be made to the items of trust on the Government
in the Constitution because even if Parliament does not trust the
Government and President does not approve it, the Government will
continue its activities.
