Baku, Azerbaijan, Oct. 28

Trend:

The forces, trying to tarnish Azerbaijan, will use pressure and manipulation against the country, Jean-Francois Mancel, member of the National Assembly of France, president of the Friends of Azerbaijan Association, told Secki-2015.az website.

He said that Azerbaijan would hold the fifth parliamentary election after gaining its independence.

"It is a great chance for a young democratic country," he said. "The electoral experience is improved and pluralism is strengthened at each parliamentary election. The same will be observed in this election. I hope that observers and commentators would be away from double standards."

Mancel said that as in other modern democratic countries, the executive power plays a major role in determining a political course in Azerbaijan.

"So, the parliament should be a place for discussions and settlement of significant issues, maintaining freedom amid tense international conditions, returning occupied territories and developing international relations," he said.

The parliamentary election will be held in Azerbaijan Nov. 1.
