The political situation in Azerbaijan is calm. Demonstrations, both opposition and Government sponsored, occasionally take place in Azerbaijan, and mainly in Baku. Opposition rallies are usually heavily policed and there has been violence on occasions. It is advised that visitors keep well away from any official or unofficial gathering of a political nature.
Political rallies or a public gathering of a political nature should be avoided. Azerbaijan faces a threat from terrorism. Attacks could be indiscriminate and against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners, such as international hotels, restaurants and pubs, as well as energy sector facilities.
Outbreaks of Avian Influenza (Bird Flu) in Azerbaijan in 2006 resulted in a small number of human fatalities. As a precaution, live animal markets, poultry farms and other places where close contact with domestic, caged or wild birds is likely should all be avoided. Travelers should also ensure that poultry and egg dishes are thoroughly cooked.
