The White Party (Azerbaijani: Ağ Partiya) is a political party in Azerbaijan.
History
The party was established in 1993 by Kerar Abilov [az] as the United Azerbaijan Party. Abilov contested the presidential elections that year, finishing second but with only 40,000 votes to the 3.9 million claimed to have been received by incumbent president Heydar Aliyev.[1]
In 2016 Tural Abbaslı [az] left the Musavat party and joined United Azerbaijan. In a party congress held on 26 June 2016 the party's name was changed to the White Party and Abbaslı was elected as chairman. However, the name change was not recognised by the Ministry of Justice until 2020. The party contested the 2020 parliamentary elections under its original name, receiving 0.3% of the vote and failing to win a seat.
In the 2024 parliamentary elections the party received 0.6% of the vote, again failing to win a seat.
