Independent development of the country, the socio-political situation, and increase in the dollar are the leading topics of today's press.
The Azerbaijan newspaper writes about the unparalleled economic development. The author writes that since 1995 political, legal and economic reforms have been carried out as well as political liberalization and all that thanks to Heydar Aliyev. Then, the author writes about the 13-year rule of President Ilham Aliyev, in which stable economic and political system was established, improving the welfare of the people, as well as national solidarity. The author then speaks about successful international economic projects and the role and place of Azerbaijan in the world.
The website Azadliq.info criticizes the commonest statement of the authorities, "We go our own way." In fact, they are right, because, choosing the path of authoritarianism, they stubbornly follow it. Capturing entirely the electoral system, they did so that there is no legitimately elected body. After the September 26 referendum in general began a transition to monarchism.
Novoye Vremya writes the revenues of the population nominally grow, but if you take into account inflation, there is no real growth; on the contrary, there is a drop. For example, according to statistics, the nominal income of the Azerbaijani population in January-September of this year was by 8.7 per cent higher than the same period last year, according to the State Statistics Committee. The nominal cash income per capita has increased by 7.4 percent. However, inflation devalued the increase.
The website Musavat.com writes that before the end of the year the dollar can cost 1.95 AZN. AZN strengthened within three weeks, but then has become cheaper again. The expert Vugar Bayramov says the demand for dollars will continue to grow. The expert Natig Jafarli says AZN "floats" absolutely with no corresponding logic. He argues that by the end of the year $ 1 will cost 1.95 AZN.
