Press Review 08/31/2016

The fight against corruption, cooperation of Baku with Russia against the opposition, the cessation of the sale of currency by banks, and problems with mortgages are the leading topics of today's press.

The official newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the successful process of improving governance: fight against corruption, reforms, and restoration of the rights of citizens.

With specific regard to the fight against corruption, Azerbaijan has acceded to all international initiatives. The author shows a detailed view of the fight against corruption for 13 years of President Ilham Aliyev’s rule.

Azadlig writes that the official Baku denounces itself by holding the anti-Gulen campaign. The author cites the example of broadcast of a Vesti program on the Russian TV channel, which refers to the so-called Gulen revolution in Azerbaijan. And this fact is associated with PFPA.

The Azerbaijani authorities are cooperating with Russia in the fight with the opposition. The author criticizes this program, as well as the situation with Gulen supporters in Azerbaijan.

Novoye Vremya has published an article entitled Where Is Currency? The Financial Market Supervision House (FMSH) has recently been very surprised by the information that some commercial banks have imposed a ban on issuing loans in manats. Banks, for their part, justified that by the decision of FMSH. But FMSH categorically rejected that. This is not the only case when FMSH learns about events in our banking system after they happen.

It turns out that banks acquire currency, but do not put it on sale. So is someone artificially creating a shortage of cash dollars?

Bizim Yol writes about the onerous terms of mortgage loans. The newspaper recalls the Cabinet’s decision on the demolition of dilapidated housing in nine districts of Baku within five years.  –0--
