“By implementing very serious measures Azerbaijan has managed to reduce the negative implications of the global economic crisis for the country. Job creation is a constant process in Azerbaijan because, unlike some other countries, our population is growing. And this is a sign of economic development. The number of population in Azerbaijan is growing by more than 100,000 each year. Therefore, creating jobs should be a constant process. Over 500 jobs were created in this hospital. We will try our utmost to keep unemployment at the lowest level."
"Azerbaijan completes the year 2016 with good indicators. Non-oil industry and agriculture have grown, foreign exchange reserves have been preserved in the country," President Ilham Aliyev said.
