In this connection I would like to refer to two statistical indicators from the report. 68 percent of respondents in Azerbaijan consider the measures taken to combat corruption in the country, effective. This figure is by three times higher than the average indices for the other countries, which is 22 percent. Another example is on the level of corruption in the world. More than 50 percent of respondents worldwide believe that the level of corruption in the last year has doubled. In Azerbaijan, 73 percent of respondents believe that the level of corruption in the country has not grown." -06В-
