Press Review 06/13/2016

The flow of emigrants from the country and the situation with tourism are the main topics of today's press.

The official newspaper Azerbaijan writes that Azerbaijan increases its competitiveness in the global market. This is facilitated by the decisions taken by the authorities, in particular, decrees and orders on the development of non-oil sector.

The author also recalls President Ilham Aliyev adopted decisions on the strengthening and development of business, saying that the National Entrepreneurship Support Fund has given out 31,000 entrepreneurs favorable loans for 1.8 billion AZN so far. Thus, investment projects have produced more than 142 thousand jobs.

Azadlig writes about the flow of emigrants from Azerbaijan. Citizens of Azerbaijan emigrate to Russia, Turkey, Europe and America, where they are faced with a term such as "second-rate people." While in Europe, the former citizens of Azerbaijan are trying to "revive their country in a foreign land." Therefore, it is necessary not to leave their homeland and, on the contrary, to expel the power that does not let the people live from it.

Yeni Musavat investigates the question of lowering the price of visas for foreigners. The expert Natig Jafarli believes that the price reduction is not so significant in terms of revenue to the state budget. According to him, this duty fell from 40 manats to 20 manats.

The expert believes that in terms of attracting tourists, this step is not so significant. Especially when compared with Georgia, which has eliminated visa regime with 48 countries. To attract tourists it is necessary to cancel the visa regime with a number of EU countries. Steps should be also taken to reduce the price of tickets and hotels. –0--
