The residents of Nardaran Azeri settlement have resolved to refuse Azeri citizenship as a sign of protest against the unresolved condition of their social and economic problems and oppression of their countrymen. A number of political parties of Azerbaijan have expressed concern with this. Deputy chairman of the Islamic party of Azerbaijan Rovshan Ahmedli noted that Nardaran residents had appealed to various international bodies asking for asylum. In Ahmedli's opinion, the social problems present in Nardaran are typical not only for the mentioned settlement: almost all of the regions of the country are in a hard situation. "Thus, the only way out of the created situation is resignation of the present authorities," - Ahmedli concluded.
