Certain opposition figures in Azerbaijan have chosen the policy of
betraying their own state and people, according to an Azeri official.
In an interview with Apa news agency, Ali Hasanov, the head of
the Public and Political Affairs Department at the Azerbaijani
Presidential Administration, addressed the government-opposition
relations, saying that authorities in the country are conducting a
dialogue with oppositionists in different formats.
"Representatives of the authorities and the opposition discuss
different topics in parliament. We conduct a dialogue with opposition
figures at different conferences and meetings. I cannot think of any
other form of dialogue," he said.
Hasanov added that the opposition parties and the opposition-run
media have adopted what he called an anti-Azerbaijani posture.
He noted that several opposition parties and leaders, and opposition
run newspapers, which get funding from abroad, rejoice at the country's
failures, feeling unhappy with the progress made.
Speaking of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Hasanov said the country
is dissatisfied with the dynamics of the peace settlement talks.
"President Aliyev has announced several times that the situation does
not satisfy us. The only encouraging factor is that the co-chairs
are against the maintenance of the status quo. The United States and
France, and Russia, have announced on the level of their presidents,
that the status quo cannot continue," he said.
