Azerbaijan but also integrated into the world economy President Inspiration As a result of Aliyev’s pro-social policy, negative processes are not so felt in our country.”
E. Azizov some food He also compared the price of his products with other countries. For example, he said that since ancient times the main food The price of 1 kilogram of bread is 6-7 manats in Germany and Italy. of the chief executive According to him, the price of one kilogram of bread in Armenia is 2 manats 50 kopecks, in Russia it is 2 manats, and in Azerbaijan it is 1 manat. 10 it’s a penny.

In the last year, the most expensive food product in Azerbaijan in terms of percentage is bread. In the last year, according to official figures, bread has doubled in price by around 50 percent.
The comparison of egg prices with official figures also shows that the price claimed by E. Azizov does not reflect the truth. According to the figures of DSK, the average market price of one egg in the country 20 it’s a penny. this is execution It is 25 percent higher than the price (16 kopecks) announced by the head.
of the chief executive One point about the numbers he sounds is also worth noting. How correct is it to compare Azerbaijan with developed countries like Germany and Italy? After all, in those countries prices Although it is high compared to Azerbaijan, the income of the population is quite high. For example, the minimum in Azerbaijan at the moment Salary It is 300 manats. The salary of 40 percent of wage earners in the country is around 300 manats. In Germany, which E. Azizov cited as an example, it is now a minimum Salary 12 euros per hour. In other words, the income of an employee who works there for eight hours a day is at least 2 thousand euros. This means more than ten times the income compared to the minimum wage in Azerbaijan.
According to official figures, during the first nine months of this year, the price of food products in Azerbaijan increased by 22.5 percent compared to last year. From this point of view, the official figures of E. Azizov “there is an increase in the prices of basic food products at the global level. Azerbaijan has also integrated into the world economy, but President Inspiration As a result of Aliyev’s pro-social policy, negative processes are not so felt in our country.”
Now about food products in Azerbaijan inflation indicator Armenia and ahead of Georgia. So, while food inflation in Azerbaijan is 22.5 percent, the same indicator in Georgia 17.6 percent, in Armenia it is 13.7 percent. Therefore, Azerbaijan is ahead of both countries in terms of the level of price increases.
