The directions of development of the non-oil sector, the possibility of state support for problem business loans, university activities, and the possible impact on Azerbaijan of sanctions against Russia are the leading themes of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the directions of development of the non-oil sector of the country. As an example, industrial parks and quarters in Sumgayit, Baku, Neftchale, Mingechevir, Sabirabad, Masalli, and Shirvan are given.
The author recalls the opening of a plant for the production of disposable syringes with the participation of the head of state in Pirallahi on May 16. The plant"s capacity is 150 million syringes per year, 9.5 million manat was invested in it.
At present, there are 5 industrial parks in Azerbaijan, employing about 9,000 people engaged in reprocessing, chemical production, light industry, shipbuilding, pharmacology, etc.
The website Musavat.com discusses the possible issuance of compensation for problem business loans with an expert. Various solutions to this issue are already proposed. However, experts believe that now the solution to this issue is unrealistic, since the state does not have such means, although it would be possible to pay a part of the loan, equal to 10 thousand dollars.
There are consumer loans from 100 thousand dollars to 10 million dollars, although the issuance of such an amount is prohibited by law, and law enforcement officers do not initiate criminal cases on these facts.
The website Yenisabah.az discusses with the expert Kamran Asadov the issue of accreditation and the activities of universities. Typically, universities are accredited every 5 years, and during this period some changes occur in the world education system.
During accreditation, the university pays a fee. However, if for paying the fee it is necessary to increase the cost of tuition for students, then this is an indicator of the unprofitability of the university. Is such a university really required?
The article provides the amount of state accreditation for educational institutions, which was determined at the May 17 meeting of the Milli Majlis.
The website Bizim Yol ponders whether there is a danger for Azerbaijan if anti-Russian sanctions are applied. Currently, the US Congress is discussing new anti-Russian sanctions that will be applied to the energy sector of the Russian Federation.
Experts believe that such a decision will not apply to Azerbaijan. The US has another goal - to hinder the implementation of the Nord Stream -2 project, since this year the United States began to supply large volumes of gas to Europe. Therefore, this is the very target of the US sanctions, as well as the Turkish Stream project.
