The newspaper "Azerbaijan" writes about raising the minimum wage, a decree was signed by the head of state on February 8. According to the decree, the minimum wage will increase from 136 to 180 manat.

The author claims that the state attaches great importance to improving the social condition of the population. The following are figures on the opening new jobs, enterprises and factories, improving the situation of refugees and internally displaced persons.

The newspaper "Yeni Musavat" writes about raising prices for dairy products and cereals by 10-15 kopecks, and some firms have sharply reduced the production of dairy products. It is not clear that there is no information about a sharp decline in milk production in the country. In addition, over the past 6 months in Europe, prices for dairy products have decreased. This gives grounds to assert that the prices for dairy products in Azerbaijan should decrease, not increase. In social networks suggest that prices are rising due to changes in tax laws.

The site İnsider.az writes about the situation in the housing market. We are talking about a possible reduction in prices on the market for the construction of private houses. The expert suggests that this may be related to the construction of social housing, although it was envisaged that this would not happen. Experts analyze and reason on this topic, noting that there is a serious difference between the purchasing power of the population and the cost of housing. For this reason, the decline in housing prices is projected.
