More on Democratic Party of Turkmenistan
Description from Wikipedia:
The Democratic Party of Turkmenistan (Türkmenistanyň Demokratik partiýasy) is the only political party in Turkmenistan. The DPT was led by former Soviet dictator Saparmurat Niyazov from the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s until his death in 2006. The party is simply a natural successor to the Communist Party of the Turkmen SSR. Its current leader is President Gurbanguly Berdimuhammedow. ==History==
The DPT was created following the dissolution of the Soviet Union as a successor party to the Communist Party of the Turkmen SSR. The institutions and principles of the old party were effectively unchanged in the transition, as was the old guard. The DTP has faced limited and sporadic challenges from alternative political parties in the past but have never faced a significant challenge during an election because of the often repressive nature of politics in the country. Opposition parties are usually crushed before they make any significant grounds in public opinion.
