The President comes back from Davos
On Friday evening President Ilham Aliyev returned to Baku from Davos, where he took part in the World Economic Forum.
On January 22, he delivered a speech at a session of "Regions in Transformation: Eurasia". Then Aliyev presented the first European Games 2015 in Baku, and also met with representatives of the world's political and business elite.
Aliyev arrived in Davos from Germany, where he was on an official working visit.
In the olden time Aliyev spent time at a ski resort in the Alps after the forum, but this time he did not even wait for the closure of the Davos forum.
It can be assumed that the poor economic situation due to falling oil prices requires the President to take immediate decisions.—0-
