BAKU POLITICAL SCIENTIST TELLS HEYDAR ALIYEV SADDAM HUSEYN'S FORTUNE

January 15, 2002 - 21:32 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Baku media notes that the foreign minister Vilayat Guliyev returned from Strasbourg depressed. As it is known, Azerbaijan foreign minister left for Strasbourg on Friday to negotiate with the European Council leadership, after he had known that the PACE committee for the legal issues and human rights had passed a vote with ultimatum to Baku leadership. Committee claimed immediate release of all the political prisoners threatening with sanction imposition. Disappointed with the results of the meetings in Strasbourg, Guliyev expressed hope that Azerbaijan would not be expelled from the Council of Europe. Not all people in Baku share his optimism. For example, political scientist Elhan Mekhtiyev foretokens the situation worsening in his publication in «Yeni mussavat» newspaper. In his opinion, Saddam Huseyn's fortune expects Heydar Aliyev and Iraqi people's fortune expects Azerbaijani people. The same newspaper states that in the case of the expulsion from the European council, the country will face the political, financial sanctions and will have more infirm position in the Karabakh issue.
