The official newspaper Azerbaijan has published an article by the chief editor of the newspaper, MP Bakhtiyar Sadigov, which applies to the problem of refugees in different parts of the world. He complains that at the global level such concepts and values as compassion, humanity, kindness and generosity are lost. The author believes the problem is connected with the loss of these qualities. He also tells about the origin of the refugee problem in the 1990s in Azerbaijan and its solution. The author also recalls the existence of the refugee problem in the Middle East, and that now the word "migrant" is associated with racial discrimination and inhuman attitude towards them.
Azadlig writes about a split inside the authorities. That is the conclusion the newspaper comes in connection with the publication by the head of the Presidential Administration Ramiz Mehdiyev of another anti-Western article.

Mehdiyev resumed sharp criticism of the international financial and trade institutions of the West, which destroy national economies of developing countries.
Despite all this, the Azerbaijani authorities are pinning their hopes on these very financial institutions to find a way out of the crisis.
