Presidential candidate from Liberal-Democratic Party of Azerbaijan Fuad Aliyev is for eliminating army recruiting from 18 years old.
He said the army should pass to a contract basis.

"It is necessary to completely reject the corrupted system of recruiting from 2011.

Moreover, steps are needed to be taken for creation of professional and mobile army, which will hire professionals by contracts and on the basis of an entrance exam based on the intellectual level"

Aliyev is also for initiation of the Organization for Economic Cooperation of the Caspian littoral states. All disputable issues around the Caspian Sea will disappear once this organization is created. The main idea of this organization will be the joint production and sale of oil and gas by all Caspian littoral states.

It should be noted that 3,768 members of the party were registered as observers to follow the presidential elections in Azerbaijan.
