Azerbaijan is marrying less and divorcing more, and a new Baku TV discussion asks what that means for the country's future.

Azerbaijan is marrying less and divorcing more, and a new Baku TV discussion asks what that means for the country's future.
The latest episode of Baku TV's Khulasa program takes up falling marriage numbers, rising divorces and a falling birth rate, and treats them as one demographic problem rather than three separate trends. The discussion also turns to weakening family ties, claims of violence against children, and safety in schools and kindergartens, asking what pressures children are growing up under.
The program frames the trend as a demographic problem, not just a private matter: family habits today shape the population of tomorrow.
