Baku/25.09.13/Turan:
On the regular public television debate September 24, presidential
candidates attacked the nominee of the National Council of Democratic
Forces (NCDF) Jamil Gasanli .
Previously, Gasanli was accused of granting his daughter's marriage
to "an Christian Englishman," now the head of the party " Modern
Musavat", Hafiz Hajiyev has gone a step further, calling the candidate,
"son-in-law of the Armenians." He called the National Council and
its leader Armenian accomplices.
The chairman of the Social Democratic Party, Araz Alizadeh, devoted
his entire
6-minute speech to criticizing Gasanli and other leaders of the
opposition.
Alizadeh admitted that after the article against him in the newspaper
"Yeni Musavat", he decided to express his hatred of the opposition on
air. He attacked Jamil Gasanli and the leader of Musavat, Isa Gambar,
accusing them of incompetence, corruption, libel, lies, and lack of
a platform,.
Alizadeh warned of the danger if Gambar returns to power, putting the
blame on Gambar's written response to the anti-Turkic book "Hearth"
by Zori Balayan .
Alizadeh deliberately did not call Gasanli by name, but rather calling
him "this" in a humiliating way.
Plenipotentiary Representative of President Ilham Aliyev, Mubariz
Gurbanly focused on the successful development of Azerbaijan under
the leadership of the current president. He cited the GDP's 10 years
of growth by 3.4 times as indication.
Rejecting criticism on the issuance of "enslaving" credits to the
population, Gurbanly said that small businesses were given preferential
loans of 1 billion 200 million AZN.
He also stated the high allocations for the development of health
and education.
However, in response, the head of the party Umid, Iqbal Aghazadeh
said that what kind of quality education and health care can there be
if the average salary of doctors is 150 manats (about $ 190 ), and
if teachers earn 167 manats (about $ 210 ), and the State Students
Admission Commission annually sees a decrease in passing grades in
high school.
As for loans, the central bank provides them to commercial banks
controlled by oligarchic groups at 3 percent, giving them to people
at 27-30 per cent interest. Bank debts have reached 700 million AZN.
According to Aghazadeh, all statements about the country's development
are false, and a glossy facade hides the bitter reality.
Representing the head of the Justice Party, Ilyas Ismailov, deputy
chairman of the Islamic Party, Akif Heydarli (the Justice Party,
the Islamic Party and the Green Party are joined in the block
"Motherland"), focused on the violation of the rights of believers,
unfair prosecution of the Islamists, and illegal banning of the hijab
in schools.
The leader of the National Revival Movement Faraj Guliyev spoke of
the need for protection of agricultural producers and importers from
monopolies. He spent half the performance on the criticism of the
National Council, likening it to the Bolshevik Soviets.
The leader of the Democratic Party, Sardar Jalaloglu, urged the
authorities not to resort to political revenge. He condemned the
arrest of the son of the Popular Front Party head Ali Kerimli ,
and before that the arrest of Isa Gambar's son.
Jalaloglu recalled 10 years ago when he was arrested by armed men,
a machine gun was placed to the head of his daughter, who at the time
was a 6th grade student.
"Revenge on children for their fathers is immoral. Even the bloody
dictator Stalin said that "children are not responsible for their
fathers," reminded Jalaloghlu .
The leader of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan, Gudret
Gasanguliev, focused on the criticism of Jamil Gasanli. He again put
him guilty for positive quotes in his books about Heydar Aliyev, as
well as the fact that he did not mind the constitutional amendment
in parliament to allow President Ilham Aliyev to run for a third term.
Jamil Gasanli also urged the authorities to stop persecuting children
of the opposition. He recalled that recently the son of Ali Kerimli
was arrested and the 16 -year-old son of the press secretary of the
National Council, Oktay Gyulalyev, was brutally beaten and wounded.
Gasanli again urged Aliyev himself to come to the debate and to account
for the failure to liberate occupied lands, and to follow through on
promised reforms.
In response, Mubariz Gurbanly and Zahid Oruj accused Gasanli that the
forces supporting him lost strategic military positions in 1992-93
and now Azerbaijan has to solve difficult problems of strengthening
its economic and military power.
Gasanli responded by saying Aliyev's corrupt regime cannot solve the
problem of liberating lands, because the wealth of the country is
exported abroad.
"Ilham Aliyev takes gold mines in Gadabay, and prior to the election;
salaries have only increased by 10AZN. And that the bread money people
with disabilities (IDP) was only raised by 1.5 manats," said Gasanli.
Gasanli recalled that 10 years ago Aliyev said that he would be the
president of all Azerbaijanis, but has now he divides people into
national and anti-national forces.
Gasanli also commented on the repression against the people's best
sons.
Finally, Gasanli said that while this despotic regime is in power,
there would not be justice and development in Azerbaijan. -06D-
