In 1987 M. Gorbatschow expelled Guedar Aliev from the Politburo and the Soviet government. Since Aliev was the only Azerbaijani member in this government, this caused violences in Baku and the formation of the independentist Azerbaijani People's Front.

Flag of the Azerbaijan People's Front

The Azerbaijan People's Front used the same flag as the first Azerbaijan flag from 1918, slightly modified. The flag is horizontally divided blue-red-green with a white crescent and eight-pointed star placed in the red stripe near the hoist.
