The independent Union of Workers of Azerbaijan has issued an appeal to the country\'s various opposition parties to set aside their rivalries and covert overtures to the authorities and close ranks in a Unified Opposition Movement. The appeal accuses the present leadership of being solely preoccupied with retaining power, rather than seeking solutions to the problems the country faces. It argues that those problems can be resolved only after a fair presidential election, not as a result of parliamentary elections.The Central Asia-Caucasus Analyst is a biweekly publication of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute & Silk Road Studies Program, a Joint Transatlantic Research and Policy Center affiliated with the American Foreign Policy Council, Washington DC., and the Institute for Security and Development Policy, Stockholm.
