The transit possibilities of Azerbaijan, the lack of struggle against corruption, the manat exchange rate, and distrust of official statistics are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the growing importance of Azerbaijan as an international transit country due to its geographical location.
The article also says that one of the directions of the country's economic policy are infrastructure projects, which are described in the article.
The website Azadliq.info writes that the official statistics does not cause trust. The author analyzes the figures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Migration Service about those who arrived in Azerbaijan for permanent residence and those who left Azerbaijan. The author shows contradictions in these data, and argues about the gross lies of official structures.
The newspaper Novoye Vremya criticizes the report of the Prosecutor General's Office on combating corruption. In the article Major Corrupt Officials Get Away with their Faults the author notes that for some reason the fight against corruption implies a fight against petty bribery.
At the same time, the major corrupt officials can escape responsibility, as evidenced by the report of the deputy prosecutor Kamran Aliyev.
According to statistics, 60.5% of the country's residents admit that they give bribes for making a lawful decision.
The Yeni Musavat newspaper is investigating the government's plans to strengthen the manat with the expert Rashad Hasanov, who explains this by raising the price of oil on the world market. It is this factor, the expert points out, that is the main thing in the issue of the manat rate. The expert also notes that at present there is no real floating rate regime in Azerbaijan. He believes that in 2018 serious changes in the rate of manat are not expected.
