The decision of the Tariff Council to increase the cost of gasoline and diesel fuel put the topic of the pandemic and the Second Karabakh war into the background. The media comments on the reasons for the rise in prices, the greatest impact on certain areas, and so on.
The website Sfera.az writes about a sharp rise in prices for basic food products after the rise in the cost of gasoline and diesel fuel. On average, prices for frozen food increased by 15%, oil by 10%, detergents by 20%.
The rise in the cost of gasoline will affect taxi services and transportation. Most of all, the rise in price will affect agricultural products, since diesel fuel is used there.
In January-November last year, the country produced 1 million 881.3 thousand tons of diesel fuel and 1 million 66.3 thousand tons of gasoline.
25% of diesel fuel was used in agriculture. Experts say that the cost of transport, water, electricity and other utilities will also increase.
The website Yenisabah.az discusses the situation in the car market, which will be affected by the rise in prices for gasoline and diesel fuel. Experts believe that this factor will not seriously affect the cost of cars, since the cost of fuel has increased by only 10 qepiks. A certain impact can be made on cars with diesel engines.
The website Bizimyolinfo.az associates the increase in prices with the increase in pensions since January this year. Prices rose in the markets before the Tariff Council decision was published. The rise in price will affect transport, utilities.
There was no reason to raise prices, since both AI-92 gasoline and diesel fuel are produced in the country, raw materials are not imported, the salary of employees has not been increased, the difference between supply and demand has not changed.
The website Redaktor.az is also discussing the issue of price increases, noting that this will affect agriculture and the public passenger transport sector.
In this regard, it is expected to strengthen the support package in both sectors.
Subsidies in agriculture may increase to account for the difference in fuel prices.

In 2017, the Sumgayit City Court ruled to evict the Aliyev family—refugees from Gubadli (Akper, Sarvinaz, Ramil, and two other family members)—from an illegally occupied apartment in the 12th microdistrict, Building 7A, Apartment 35. The court ordered the property be returned to its rightful owner, Samaya Aliyeva. However, the Ministry of Justice intervened, citing a presidential decree from July 1, 2004, which approved a state program for improving the living and working conditions of refugees. Under this directive, refugees without alternative housing cannot be evicted until they are provided with a replacement residence by the Executive Authority.
