The Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan leader Ali Kerimli in his Thursday press conference shared with journalists his vision of actions of "Azadliq" block in case of unfair elections.

"We address the authorities with a request to prevent intrusions of executive power representatives and law enforcement institutions into the election process. In case if we see that on the Election Day there were no violations we will accept the results, whatever they would be. In case if vast falsifications will take place during the elections we will call people to struggle against it in the frames of the Constitution," said Kerimli.

Speaking of the methods of the struggle, Kerimli noted that it will be only constitutional methods. "Demonstrations, political actions – we do not speak of any kind of violence," Kerimli said.

PFPA leader said that he is sure that "Azadliq" bloc will be able to attain 75 mandates in 125 chaired Parliament.

"Our opinion polls show that the majority of the population is not going to vote for the ruling party, that is why the government is planning to forge the elections," says PFPA leader.
Kerimli also commented on the elections campaign: "We do not consider that it was conducted in fair conditions. Opposition had a limited right of holding political meetings and a TV broadcast time was not divided sufficiently".

Kerimli said that the bloc will observe with a great interest exit-poll reports from the both companies who are going to conduct it.
