The economic and political independence of Azerbaijan, the high cost of medicines, and the expected changes in education are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the economic and political independence of the country.
In terms of its competitiveness, Azerbaijan, according to the opinion of the Davos Economic Forum, ranks 35th, and among the developing countries it ranks 3rd. Further, the author gives the numerical data confirming this.
The independent policy pursued by President Ilham Aliyev has turned Azerbaijan into a reliable partner in the world community.
The Echo newspaper talks about whether changes in the education system are coming in Azerbaijan. Three main changes are being introduced into the country's educational system. The first is the transition from a system based on the memorization of information and facts to a system, where the emphasis is on analytical thinking. The second change is to make the education system more flexible so that it can keep up with the rapidly changing world. The third change is a departure from the emphasis on traditional methods of education to the introduction of such tools as, for example, online courses. This will make education more accessible.
The newspaper Novoye Vremya writes that the Azerbaijanis are in the hands of a drug mafia. At the end of April, five people were detained in Azerbaijan, trafficking in drugs. The criminals of the pharmaceutical market imported low-quality drugs into the country.
In neighboring Turkey, medicines are 3 times cheaper than in Azerbaijan. Our people are not only deceived, but also sold poor-quality medicines. -0-----

For Elshan Hasanov, a 46-year-old man with severe hearing impairment (fourth-degree), what should have been a straightforward process to receive government-provided hearing aids has turned into a bureaucratic nightmare involving three healthcare agencies. As a result, Hasanov is forced to pay nearly 60 manats ($35) several times a year for what used to be a free service—a cost he says is untenable on his modest disability pension.
