The activities of the President of Azerbaijan in September 2018, ways to eliminate problem loans, and a look at personnel changes are the leading topics of today's media
The newspaper Azerbaijan assesses the activities of President Ilham Aliyev during September of this year. During the past month, the head of state made 4 visits and participated in the parade, as well as in 4 events of international importance.
The author comments on the visits and events in detail and sums up the result that Azerbaijan is implementing an independent policy in full.
The newspaper Yeni Musavat continues the theme of problem loans and the search for ways to eliminate them. Currently, the amount of problem loans is 1.8 billion manats, but in fact there are more. Therefore, the calculations of international rating agencies differ from local estimates. The dynamics of the last three years shows that the number of problem loans is growing every year.
The newspaper Novoye Vremya discusses yesterday"s statement by MP Fazil Mustafa about the lack of security of Azerbaijani officials. He noted that Azerbaijani officials are professionals who perform their work well. But when there is a change in the ownership of companies and enterprises and the chairmen of state committees and ministers, officials will have problems. Each minister or chairman of a committee introduces "his criteria" and controls it as he sees fit. "Disobedient" people may be dismissed at any time, regardless of anything, including all their previous activities. Therefore, we need to create a legal mechanism that will protect the officials.
