Media Review October 30, 2018

The anniversary of the commissioning of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway, illegal constructions and the position of officials, and the possible increase in taxes are the leading topics of today's media.

The Azerbaijan paper writes about the anniversary of the commissioning of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway. The author calls this project one of the hundred largest projects in the world.

As an economic project, it carries an important political significance.

Currently, the transportation of goods from China to Europe by BTK is carried out in 12-15 days, whereas earlier it took 45-62 days.

The website Modern.az writes about illegal buildings and lack of information about them at officials. The website discusses this topic with the MP Elman Mammadov. In Baku, under the pretext of illegal buildings, houses and objects of citizens are being demolished.

The author asks a question whether all the buildings were actually erected without the knowledge of officials, although you cannot hammer a nail in Baku without permission. The MP believes the officials who allowed to erect illegal buildings should be punished. This also applies to the construction of houses on the territory of Badamdar, which was, according to one version, the reason for the activation of the landslide.

The website Strateq.az writes about the possible increase in taxes from next year. The expert Rovshan Agayev arrived at this conclusion analyzing the state budget for the next year. Public discussions on this topic also provide grounds for thought.

The expert gives a more detailed analysis of possible tax changes, cites figures and forecasts revenues to the budget. Rovshan Agayev stresses that in 2019 an increase in tax for legal entities is expected.
