Opposition leader steps down
The chairman of the opposition-minded Party for National
Independence of Azerbaijan (PNIA), Ayaz Rustamov, has resigned from
his post.
The party leader explained his move with health problems. The
political council of the party will consider the resignation
tendered by Rustamov at its next meeting.
Rustamov was elected the PNIA chairman after former leader Ali
Aliyev was expelled for his activity contradicting the party's
political course. Aliyev, who chairs the Civil and Development
Party, was the successor of Etibar Mammadov, the founder and first
chairman of PNIA.
