Davutoğlu hires Lobbying firm 10 million Euro in Brussels to improve image abroad

November 7, 2015 By administrator

davutoglu imageTurkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu has reportedly hired top lobbying company Burson-Marsteller to improve his image abroad.

The contract with the company began on Nov. 3, just two days after Davutoğlu’s Justice and Development Party (AK Party) won an unexpected landslide victory in a repeat parliamentary election on Nov. 1, EUobserver website reported on Friday.

“The company is providing communication support to highlight the prime minister’s leading role in international efforts to address the refugee crisis and his commitment to open dialogue and consensus, which is crucial to ensuring the stability and future prosperity of Turkey,” Karen Massin, the CEO of the company’s Brussels office, said.

The client, as listed in Burson-Marsteller’s entry in the European Commission transparency register, is the “Office of Prime Minister of Turkey,” according to the report.

 

The report said the work was worth less than 9,999 euros but cautioned that the low figure might be due to the fact that the contract is new. Its activities so far include setting up background briefings with journalists and the prime minister’s press team, with a view to lining up interviews in Ankara, it also said.

Bibin created bad image also for Russia – analyst #ElectricYerevan

June 27, 2015 By administrator

f558e658782648_558e658782680.thumbIn an interview with Tert.am, a Russian political analyst commented upon the social rebellion against the rising power prices in Armenia, admitting that the decision by Yevgeniy Bibin, the CEO of the Electric Networks of Armenia, turned out bad for Russian investors, simultaneously affecting the country’s international reputation.
“Yes, Binin’s activity greatly damaged the reputation of not only Russian investors in Armenia but also the state and national interests of Russia,” said Alexander Krylov, the president of the Society for Caucasus Studies.
Describing Bibin as a common Russian “universal manager’ prone to treat the “inferior class” (those not affiliated with wealthy business circles) with contempt and arrogance, the analyst said he finds that Russian energy companies’ social policies must be built upon approaches responsive to the realities in Armenia.
“Apart from the Russian management’s negative aspects in Armenia, much more undermining is the role played by the domestic ‘fat cats’, whose boundless greediness makes [many] Armenians leave their own homeland and state in search for a better future in Russia and other countries,” he noted.
The analyst said he sees that the poor management in Armenia’s state and business infrastructures too, essentially contributed to the decision to raise the electricity tariffs. “So without any drastic reforms, the problems in Armenia will increase in number from now on too, causing the social slogans to change into political ones,” he added.
