Press Review December 26, 2017
Congratulations of the head of state, a negative from the absence of Azerbaijan's membership in the WTO, and expert assessments of the past year are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the confident progress of Azerbaijan under the leadership of Ilham Aliyev, who on December 24 celebrated his birthday.
The author tells about the congratulations from the heads of other states on this occasion, quoting them. The article says the main message voiced in the congratulations is the successes achieved by Azerbaijan under the leadership of Ilham Aliyev.
The newspaper Echo published an article entitled Azerbaijan Urgently Needs to Join WTO.
Azerbaijan has to do a great job to improve the business climate in the country. The main problem is the lack of trust from business structures. It is necessary to give guarantees to businessmen that business in Azerbaijan will be conducted according to international rules, and therefore it is necessary to enter the World Trade Organization.
Since 1997, Azerbaijan has been negotiating for WTO accession, and our neighboring countries have already become members of this organization.
The Yeni Musavat newspaper sums up the results of the past year, calling the main events - the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars project, the new oil contract and the position of the manat.
MP Ali Masimli assesses the ongoing reforms, the signed oil contract, the improvement of the state administration system, the rate of the manat, the GDP forecast, the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway, and the development of the non-oil sector.--0--
