The "Union of billionaires" - is a means of the Kremlin to impose pressure so that to have more manageable and obedient Baku. I think such is its main role and nothing else, chairman of the Baku research centre "East-West", Arastun Orujlu, replied to Arminfo correspondent's question at the online press-conference.
"I don't think that the "Union of billionaires" set up by Azerbaijani businessmen in Russia may play the same part as the "Georgian dream" in Georgia. There are less such opportunities in Azerbaijan than in Georgia. The power is the richest and in fact keeps all the sectors of the public and political life of
the country under the harsh control. This is impossible taking into consideration the level of limiting freedoms and rights in Azerbaijan", - Orujlu said.
