Press Review 04/13/2016

The economic situation in the country and the geopolitical processes in the region, the new structures by the latest decrees of the head of state are the main topics of today's newspapers.

The chief official organ of the newspaper Azerbaijan publishes a report on the meeting of Ilham Aliyev with the representatives of the American Chamber of Commerce.

At the same time it highlights the words by Aliyev that the oil era ends, and Azerbaijan should start economic reforms and diversification of economy.

The newspaper writes in detail about the plans of the government for the economic reforms in the country.

The Azadlig publishes comments by the economist Nemat Aliyev about the economic situation in the country. He notes that in the fourth quarter of 2015 a budget deficit of about $ 3 billion was formed. If you pay attention to the balance of services in the country, the deficit can be seen in the amount of 4.2 billion manats.

The expert also applies to the construction sector and financial assets, which decreased by 11.3 billion AZN. All this should be a signal for the Government of Azerbaijan, says the economist.

The Bizim Yol writes about the presidential decrees on the creation of new structures, including JSC Food Supply and Procurement.

The expert on agriculture Vahid Maharramov says this is just a modified form of a structure called Azerittifag that existed in the Soviet times.

The new entity will buy and sell agricultural products for the funds of the state budget.

Maharramov says that by doing so, the state will interfere with the manufacturer, since there are many actors involved in procurement and supply. They export the bulk of production and also bring it to the domestic market.

Expert warns that the newly created structure must use local products, otherwise it would be absurd.

The Novoye Vremya talks about the role of Azerbaijan in the system of relations between the West and Russia. The West's desire to strengthen in the post-Soviet space causes a response from Russia. The article also refers to the importance of the geographical situation of Azerbaijan, which interests the West and Russia.

The article also talks about the need to change the existing world order and the role of Azerbaijan in this. The author believes that in such a situation, Azerbaijan should think only about its own interests. -0--
