The economic success of the country, the discussion of the incident at school №109, a look at the restoration of "children's benefits", and an assessment of the Brussels meeting are the leading topics of today's media.
The Azerbaijan newspaper writes that Azerbaijan is the first in the world in terms of economic indicators. President Ilham Aliyev has brought the country's economy to a new level.
2003-2018 was a period of unprecedented economic growth. During this period, GDP increased by 3.2 times, budget revenues by 13.5 times, strategic foreign exchange reserves by 27 times, foreign trade turnover by 4.6 times, export volume by 6 times, the overall economy increased by 3 times, and wages and pensions increased 10 times.
The website Yenisabah.az discusses the incident at school №109, the behavior of teachers, and their attitude towards parents. A student of grade 5 of this school attempted suicide. Her father, who came to school on May 14, was faced with rude treatment of teachers, and journalists were subjected to the same treatment.
The author believes that this behavior of teachers demonstrates the attitude of the Ministry of Education. The latter not only cannot take appropriate measures against its teachers, but even control the situation.
The newspaper Yeni Musavat discusses the topic of a possible restoration of the issuance of "children's benefits" with the economist Rashad Hasanov.
According to the existing statistics, there are 190 thousand children receiving benefits in the country. This amount varies from 13 to 50 manat.
The expert notes that the system of targeted social assistance introduced by the government since 2006 does not at all concern child policy.
According to him, if the government pays 50 manat for one child, then 80 manat should be paid for the second child and 150 manat for the fifth.
The website Modern.az writes about the Brussels meeting on May 13-14 on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Eastern Partnership Program. The press has passed information that Azerbaijan did not sign the final document, and this was regarded as non-recognition by the European Union of the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. The clarity of the issue is made by the MPs Samad Seyidov and Rasim Musabekov. Both believe that the situation in the press is misinterpreted, and the comments are unprofessional, as the commentators are not well acquainted with the situation. -0-----
