Preparations for the Formula -1 competition in Azerbaijan, the tourist flow from Azerbaijan to Iran, as well as the reasons for the increase in imports from Iran, and a look at the activities of the guardianship commissions are the leading topics of today's media.
The Azerbaijan newspaper writes about the advantages that the Formula -1 competitions give the country, which will be held in Baku on April 26-28.
The article describes the preparation for competitions, the work done, and the parameters of the Baku track. The widest part of the track is 13 meters, and the narrowest part is 7.6 meters, there are 20 turns along the whole track, and the total capacity of the audience is almost 30 thousand people.
This competition will be attended by 3 thousand volunteers. Most of those who buy tickets are citizens of Russia and the UK, and it is expected that the games will be broadcast in more than 200 countries. As for the benefits of the Games, this is, first of all, the development of tourism, as well as financial revenues. In 2016-2017, revenues amounted to $ 277 million.
The website Modern.az writes about the activities of the guardianship commission at the executive branch. Their role is not the last when deciding whether to adopt a child or transfer it to one of the parents in case of family discord, as well as deprivation of parental rights. In many cases, decisions are made that do not protect the rights of children. The expert explains such actions of the commission with their ignorance of their powers, and says there is a formal approach and even collusion.
The newspaper Yeni Musavat writes about an increase in the number of visitors to Iran. According to the State Statistics Committee, in 2018 the number of Azerbaijanis leaving for foreign countries increased by 19.5% compared with the previous year, reaching 4,908.1 thousand people.
In 2018, the number of Azerbaijanis visiting Iran increased by 71.8%. In the first two months of 2019, the number of Azerbaijanis traveling abroad as tourists increased by 26%. Basically, these are Turkey and Georgia, partly Russia and Europe.
The main focus for 2 months of 2019 was Iran, where they go for treatment, petty trade or pilgrimage. This is due to the fall of the Iranian currency, and the fall in prices in Iran due to sanctions. -0------
