AZERBAIJANI OPPOSITION PARTY GIVEN ONE WEEK TO VACATE HEADQUARTERS
By empty (10/24/2003 issue of the CACI Analyst)
The Baku Municipal Council has ordered the opposition Musavat Party to vacate the premises it currently occupies in Baku by 1 November. Mayor Hadjibala Abutalibov argued that the building in question is of historic and architectural significance, and therefore cannot be leased. Musavat Party Chairman Isa Qambar, who claims to have defeated Prime Minister Ilham Aliyev in the 15 October presidential election, rejected Abutalibov\'s argument as illogical, pointing out that the headquarters of the ruling Yeni Azerbaycan Party are likewise located in a building that is designated an architectural and historic monument.Visit also
