Army construction, plans for silkworm cocoon breeding, social problems and distrust of the judicial system are the leading topics of today's press.
The Azerbaijan newspaper claims that the Azerbaijani army is the most modern and strong in the Caucasus. This article deals with the merits of the former President Heydar Aliyev and the current President Ilham Aliyev.
The website Azadliq.info discusses the government's plans for breeding silkworm cocoon in the country with the expert Vahid Maharramov. For example, it is planned to bring 1.6 million saplings of mulberry trees from China and import silk cocoons from Iran. They will be distributed to producers in Azerbaijan free of charge.
During the Soviet period sericulture was developed in Azerbaijan. If the industry is revived, 20,000 people will be engaged in it.
However Maharramli believes this industry unpromising in Azerbaijan, saying the economic calculations are far from reality.
Echo has published a survey on the negative factors in the lives of citizens. When asked ‘What is most harmful to your health?’, 55% of the respondents named the low standard of living, 27% named stress and bad habits, 14% named environmental issues, and 4% believe there is no threat to their health.
Novoye Vremya publishes an article about the country's poor judicial system.
The lack of justice in our courts forces citizens to apply to the European Court of Human Rights. The number of complaints is growing.
