It is noteworthy that Tazahan Miralamli was summoned to the police after the Popular Front Party leader Ali Kerimli refused to meet with the representative of the presidential administration.
Speaking in parliament, President Ilham Aliyev did not hide his indignation, calling Karimli’s actions “a rejection of the marginal opposition’s dialogue with the authorities”.
Abdullayev demands to condemn Miralamli to imprisonment.
