Azerbaijan’s Ruling Party Establishes Election Fund for Its Presidential Candidate

Azerbaijan, Baku, 12 September /corr. TrendNews I.Alizade / The ruling New Azerbaijan Party (NAP) created an election fund of its Presidential candidate, present Head of State, Ilham Aliyev. "At present the process of the voluntary allocations to the fund continues," the NAP Deputy Executive Secretary, Mubariz Gurbanli, briefed the media.

The Presidential elections in Azerbaijan will take place on 15 October.

Gurbanli did not call the amounts collected in the Fund.

With regards to the amount which will be spent on the pre-election company of the ruling party, Gurbanli noted that there will be not material supplies in the root of the campaign: "NAP has 450,000 members, and we can win the campaign, without spending huge monies. The appearance of each of our member in the role of agitator will be sufficient. If we attract each party member and members of his/her family, this will compose one-and-a-half million Azerbaijani citizens".

NAP was established in 1992 by the Chairman of Supreme Assembly of Nakhchivan, Heydar Aliyev. The current President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, chairs the NAP which has been in power for 15 years.
