The military parade on June 26, the factors hampering the development of the agrarian sector, the relations between Azerbaijan and PACE, and the situation with obtaining religious education abroad are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the patriotic spirit demonstrated at the parade on June 26.
The author emphasizes that one of the priority directions of the authorities' policy is the construction of the army. The process was laid in 1993 by Heydar Aliyev and continued by President Ilham Aliyev. Since 2003, military spending has increased 15-fold, which made it possible to purchase modern military equipment, the author writes.
The Yeni Musavat newspaper writes about the problems of the agrarian sector, discussing it with the expert Rashad Hasanov. One of the main problems is too small land plots for agricultural work. 97% of agricultural producers are family farms that do not have access to large financial resources.
In addition, there are gaps in the legislation to create agricultural cooperations, the expert notes.
The website Azadliq.info writes about the relations between the Council of Europe and Azerbaijan. It is a question of the corruption scandal in PACE, which Azerbaijan tried to hush up.
The author mentions sanctions against the head of the Azerbaijani delegation Samad Seyidov and two deputies, Elkhan Suleymanov and Muslim Mammadov, who were denied access to the Council of Europe for life.
The article also refers to other sanctions applied against deputies in connection with the case of corruption.
The website Trend.az writes about the deficit of religious figures.
The Rector of the newly created Institute of the Clergy, Jeyhun Mammadov, said that graduates of the Institute will be distributed to mosques through the Caucasus Muslims Office. He expressed concern about those who once had religious education abroad. There are about three thousand of them. Some of them tried to spread the ideology of the countries, in which they received education, in Azerbaijan. -0--
