The proposal to revise salaries and pensions, attitudes towards replacing gas meters, reasons for vaccination against coronavirus, and night street lighting of the Yeni Balakhani settlement are topics of today's media.
The website Yenisabah.az discusses with the deputy Vahid Ahmedov the need to revise salaries and pensions due to the increase in the cost of gasoline since January this year and the influence of this factor on the cost of food. During the spring session, which begins its work on February 1, this issue will be discussed in parliament.
The website Yeniavaz.com comments on the decision to replace gas meters from February 1. The article recalls that a few years ago, the country replaced mechanical meters with electronic ones. The opposite happens this time.
The article argues that without a certain interest of officials, such a replacement would not have happened. It seems that one of the oligarch officials brought the meters to the country and wants to sell them to the population. In addition, gas supplied to houses is of poor quality and is often turned off.
The Trend.az website discusses the need for vaccination against coronavirus with Yazgul Abdiyeva, Doctor of Medicine. According to her, despite the improvement in the epidemiological situation in the country, it is still necessary to comply with the established rules, and the phased vaccination should continue.
According to her, everyone to whom health allows and there are no contraindications must be vaccinated. As a result, 91 out of 100 people will be completely protected from coronavirus.
Musavat.com discusses the problem of street lighting in Yeni Balakhani. Since the summer, the issue of lighting has not been resolved, although the lighting poles have been installed. The darkness is such that no flashlight can help. This situation can lead to tragic accidents. Drivers cannot see the road normally, and pedestrians also walk blindly. –0----

The closure of Azerbaijan's land borders was discussed during the parliamentary session on November 25. While the government’s decision cites the coronavirus pandemic as the main reason—despite the World Health Organization declaring its end last year—Zahid Oruj, Chair of the Human Rights Committee in the Milli Majlis, pointed to other factors. He stated, "Opening the borders could result in an influx of hundreds of thousands of non-Azerbaijani refugees due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Additionally, in Iran, many are prepared to cross into Azerbaijan to safeguard their lives and assets amid military strikes. Such waves of refugees could lead to humanitarian, social, and cultural clashes that may threaten political stability."
