Evaluation of economic reforms, stabilization of AZN, the problem of low-quality medicines, and the rise in price of fruit are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes that the reforms carried out in the country began to yield results. The author examines the world economic crises and their causes. According to the author, the current crisis began 3 years ago as a result of the uncertainty prevailing in the country and the instability in the global financial market. At the same time, the author claims that Azerbaijan suffered the least damage from the global crisis, thanks to its development model.
The author also confirms the beginning of a new stage of development in the country.
The website Azadliq.info writes about keeping the manat rate administratively. MP Vahid Ahmadov expresses concern over this state of affairs, which can lead to deficit of AZN and hype.
Echo has published an article entitled “Different prices for medicines in Baku and in the regions of Azerbaijan”. The Center for Sustainable Development Studies has recently conducted a monitoring. Supervisory authorities should pay attention that some types of drugs disappeared from the market. Perhaps, because of the high cost, entrepreneurs refuse to import them, but the population needs them.
The last regulation of prices was carried out on November 28, 2016, and since then prices have not changed. They are adjusted, depending on sharp changes in the AZN rate.
Bizim Yol writes about the rapid increase in prices for fruits and vegetables by about 30%.
