Press Review December 12, 2017
Separatist warning from Russia, gas problems, and high prices at agricultural fairs are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about Russian-Azerbaijani relations. The author notes that Azerbaijan has always supported Russia at the international level, recalling joint operations against extremism and terrorism.
At the same time, the article talks about pro-Armenian sentiments in some Russian circles and structures, and about their aggressive activity against Azerbaijan.
The newspaper Bizim Yol writes about the problems of supplying the population with gas. So in the Nasimi district of Baku 320 families have been living without blue fuel for 8 years. It is a building built by the Guneshli housing and communal enterprise. According to the agreement, the building should be gasified, but this does not happen for 8 years. The author also tells about other deceptions of citizens.
The newspaper Yeni Musavat writes about agricultural fairs, where prices are higher than in the markets, although they are organized ostensibly in order to make food available to all segments of the population. Moreover, these fairs enable farmers to directly market their products for sale. On the eve of the New Year prices are rising, and farmers do not want to keep them, the expert believes. -0 ---
