The Azerbaijan Communist Party (Azerbaijani: Azrbaycan Kommunist Partiyas) is a political party in Azerbaijan. AKP was set up in 1993 by Ramiz Ahmadov ( March 6, 1939 - September 10, 2007 ) and registered by the Justice Ministry in 1994. The Party is plagued by splits ever since its formal foundation, with each faction claiming to be the real Communist Party of Azerbaijan.Contents [hide]

Ideology
AKP maintains close contacts with the Communist Party of the Russian Federation but it is not against the country's independence. In one occasion Ahmadov stated: we are Narimanovists, followers of the national, cultural and economic ideas of Nariman Narimanov.[1] Nariman Narimanov was a moderately nationalist and leftist Azeri leader of the 1920s, and is viewed in retrospect as a forerunner of "national communism."
AKP often criticizes US politics in the region. In 2004 after the US State Department told that US was not planning to impose sanctions on Nagorno Karabakh separatists, Ahmadov said that the Americans underhandedly supported the Armenian interests and that Washington was not interested in the settlement of the conflict. He also added that the great powers are making use of the Karabakh conflict for their own interests.
AKP was strongly against the Azeri participation into the Iraq war and it often expressed solidarity to Palestinian people, to Cuba and also to "socialist Moldova".

The charmain is now Rauf Gurbanov who obtained the leadership of the party after a long dispute with Rustam Shahsuvarov.

The Communist Party of Azerbaijan (often known as "CPA-2") is a political party in Azerbaijan, a splinter-group from the main Communist Party of Azerbaijan. CPA-2 is led by Firudin Hasanov. CPA-2 was formed in 1996. CPA-2 developed close relation with the government of the country and for a brief period it was the only legally registered communist party in the country.
Hasanov was a candidate in Azerbaijan's 1998 presidential election and he arrived fourth obtaining 29.224 votes (0.87%).
Leaders of the other Azeri communist parties describe Hasanov as a "traitor" for his collaboration with the government.
In 2000 the newspaper "Bu Gun" reported that Hasanov was considering a merger with the ruling New Azerbaijan Party, but then the press secretary Seyran Veliev told that the party had no intention of merging with NAP.

The United Communist Party of Azerbaijan (Azerbaycan Vahid Kommunist Partiyasi) is a political party in Azerbaijan. AVKP was set up in the end of 1993 by the scientist Sayad Sayadov and registered by the Justice Ministry in 1995.
After a split in 1997, AVKP broke into two different parties both named United Communist Party of Azerbaijan, one led by Sayadov and the other led by the Baku City Party Committee Musa Tukanov. The bulk of United Communists sided with Tukanov, who replaced Sayadov as leader at a congress in 1998.
Nonetheless, the Justice Ministry recognizes Sayadov as leader. Sayadov's faction ( AVKP-1 ) is also officially registered while Tukanov's faction ( AVKP-2 ) is unregistered.
In May 2002, Tukanov proposed to set up the Coordination Council of Leftist Forces. Besides the AVKP-2, the Bolsheviks' Organization and the Labors' Union, also Azerbaijan Communist Party (on Platform of Marxism-Leninism) ( a party that was formed in 2000, following a split from the AVKP itself ) led by Telman Nurullayev intended to join to the CCLF. CCLF is created with the purpose of consolidation of the efforts of the leftist forces "at the struggle for socialism". Founders are trying to change "raptorial capitalist regime". In the words of Tukanov, AVKP-2 and its allies support changing the power through democratic methods in the country. Nevertheless, Tukanov does not also except the revolution way and in his opinion, "revolutionary situation must itself be grown". AVKP-2 supports Azerbaijan's unification to Belarus and Russia union. As to the idea of restoration of the USSR, in Tukanov's opinion, it should take place through a referendum. He thinks if "the representatives of workers" come to power in Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia, Karabakh problem will also be settled.
In the 2005 Azerbaijan parliamentary election, Sayad Sayadov managed to obtain 8.3% of the votes in the District 12 arriving second after the candidate of the ruling party NAP Mixail Zabelin. [1]
The party itself puts its membership at 7,000.
AVKP publishes Kommunist.
