Multilateral activity of Ilham Aliyev, the attitude of the National Council to the attempts of the government to find supporters of Gulen in the country, reducing the financial and oil resources of the country are the leading topics of today's press.
The official newspaper "Azerbaijan" published an article by Bakhtiyar Sadigov, the chief editor of the newspaper, on the diplomatic qualities of the head of state. The author described the great skill of maintaining stability in the country, while the world is teeming with color revolutions, wars and the Arab Springs. It becomes possible to avoid all this thanks to the diplomacy of Ilham Aliyev, the author claims.
"Azadlig" published reply of the head of the National Council Jamil Hasanli to attempts of the government to find supporters of "Gülen network". The author believes that this is a threat to the PFPA leader Ali Kerimli, who opposes the referendum to change the Constitution. Jamil Hasanli recalls that at one time the authorities tried to blame him and Ali Kerimli of religious radicalism.
Hasanli ironically reminded that they should look for Gülen's followers in the presidential administration, parliament and other state institutions, which were very good friends and collaborated with Gülen’s organizations.
