Infrastructural construction, the situation with imports, and the plans for the shooting of an Azerbaijani-Turkish film are the topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes there are no problems with the social infrastructure in the country. Such a statement is based on the indicators announced by President Ilham Aliyev in an interview with TASS. The article also recalls major international projects, airports and a new seaport, as well as other infrastructure.
The newspaper Echo writes about the possibility of restricting imports into the country. The declining purchasing power of the population has led to a decrease in the import of goods. However, the stability of the manat in recent months resuscitated imports, which began to show growth.
However, economists say there is nothing good in this, because it is fraught with a rise in price of essential goods and braking of local production.
According to the State Customs Committee, in January-February 2018, the import of goods amounted to 1.451 billion dollars, which is $ 479.6 million, or 49.3% more than a year ago.
The website Azadliq.info quotes from a recent interview with the adviser on culture issues of the Turkish Embassy to Azerbaijan, which asserts there are many things in Azerbaijan that should be learned.
The embassy's adviser speaks about joint projects for the filming of a movie dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Azerbaijan People"s Republic. However, the author notes a general crisis in the Azerbaijani film industry, unlike Turkey, where this sphere is flourishing.
