Hasanov said that internal management of the Azerbaijani society is impossible without freedom of press, speech and information, as well as opposing activities of civil society organizations and political parties: “Thus, we have regularly held meetings with media, political parties and non-governmental organizations. Today`s meeting was also held on the initiative of a group of opposition parties of Azerbaijan. We will exchange views on issues raised by the parties, listen to and summarize ideas. As a representative of the Azerbaijani government, I will inform Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, the Presidential Administration and relevant bodies about the outcomes.”
He noted that the Azerbaijani government had always been ready for dialogue and constructive cooperation with its political opponents: “We will be ready for it from now on as well.”
