Azerbaijan, Baku, 16 May /corr. Trend I.Alizade / Azerbaijani Opposition MPs consider that the Government makes discrimination in providing offices for the pro-governmental and opposition parties. "The headquarter of ruling new Azerbaijan Party is more spacious and luxurious than the buildings of the district executive powers. However, majority of the opposition parties have not offices," the member of Group of Opposition MPs Musavat, Arzu Samedbeyli, said during the meeting of the Parliament on 16 May.

More than 50 parties have been registered in Azerbaijan. The State provided offices for several of them.

The Chairman of opposition Great Establishment Party, Fazail Agamali, said that the Government negatively approaches opposition. "Such attitude is unacceptable. The Parliament should help opposition parties in the problems being faced by them," he said.

MP Siyavush Novruzov said that the State did not undertake obligation to provide offices for the political parties. "Opposition may privatize building and can use it as headquarter," he added.
