Bringing the gasification of the country to 95%, the possible impact of economic tension in the world on Azerbaijan, and the institution of the family are the themes of today's media.

The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the level of gasification in the country, which has reached 95%. The problem is that the gas should reach the most remote villages and towns.

At present, the number of customers has reached 2 million 140 thousand people. Only in the first half of this year a pipeline 1,519.4 km long was stretched, and a gas pipeline with a length of 113.8 km was thoroughly repaired. 42,965 customers were registered.

The Musavat website together with the economist Gubad Ibadoglu discusses the possible impact of economic confrontation between large states for Azerbaijan.

The expert notes that for 7 months of the current year 31% of imports fell on Russia and Turkey. The prices there are low, which stimulates imports. At the same time, the fall in the national currency in Iran, the Russian Federation and Turkey intensifies the pressure on the manat as well.

The newspaper Novoye Vremya writes about the causes of the family crisis.

According to the State Statistics Committee, last year 78.9 thousand marriages and 7.8 thousand divorces were registered.

The increase in the number of divorces is associated with a psycho-emotional factor and family scandals.

The overwhelming majority of families in Azerbaijan are built on the basis of external intervention. Experts agree that the modern Azerbaijani family is experiencing a crisis, which is increasing with the growth of social and economic development of society and the well-being of people. -0--
