Ilham Aliyev’s inauguration due next week

The Central Election Commission (CEC) sent on Tuesday a final protocol of the October 15 presidential elections to the Constitution Court (CC) for approval.

The CC told AssA-Irada the court was expected to make a decision shortly, though the deadline set forth by the Election Code was October 29.

The date for the inauguration ceremony of newly elected President Ilham Aliyev will be fixed after three days of publication of information on the CC’s approval in the state-run newspapers.

A well-informed source told AssA-Irada that the inauguration of the Azerbaijani President would be held at the Republican Palace late next week.*
