The newspaper Azerbaijan assesses the socio-economic reforms in the country, which began three years ago. The author writes about economic growth, the development of the non-oil sector, the improvement of the social situation of the population, the development of the economy regardless of oil, and the acceleration of the development of society"s progress in all areas, and says it is a qualitatively new model.
The article says that the concept of economic reforms by President Ilham Aliyev gives new results, and 2019 will remain in memory as a period of economic and social growth.
The website Yeni Sabah talks about the officials' guilt in the light of the fire in the Diglas shopping center on March 26.
The article provides expert opinions on the measures taken by Ilham Aliyev, who took full responsibility for the damage to the affected citizens. At the same time, it is emphasized that it is dangerous to turn such an approach into a tradition. We need to create the right system, draw conclusions, and run the insurance system. The culprit must be identified and punished.
The website Bizim Yol also writes about the fire in the shopping center, which made the issue of insurance relevant.
As for fire safety measures, they have nothing to do with entrepreneurs, since the management of the facility has to do this. Merchants were required to insure their goods as movable property in a voluntary form. -0----
