Azerbaijan's Population to exceed 11 Million By 2050
The population of Azerbaijan will increase to 11.6 million from the
present figure of over 8 million by 2050, says a report of the
Washington-based research organization.
The population will increase in other countries of the Commonwealth
of Independent States as well. The figure will reach 3.3 million in
Armenia, 8.3 million in Kyrgyzstan, 10.9 million in Tajikistan, 7.4
million in Turkmenistan and 38.4 million in Uzbekistan, Population
Reference Bureau said in a report.
The population will go down to 33.4 million in the Ukraine, 8.5
million in Belarus, 3.6 million in Georgia and 3.3 million in
Moldova. The figure in Kazakhstan is expected to remain unchanged at
15 million over the next 45 years.
Among CIS states, Tajikistan is a country with most young people, as
40% of people are below 15. Ukraine has the most `old' people, as 16%
are over 65. Children below 15 make up 15% of this country's
population, the organization's experts say.
Turkmenistan and Russia are the only countries in CIS with life
expectancy below 60 among men, as the figures make up 58 and 59
respectively. The highest figure, 70 years, is observed in
Azerbaijan, the report said.
The highest average life expectancy among women in CIS states, 75
years, is observed in Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus and Georgia. The
figure is 66 and 67 in Tajikistan and Turkmenistan respectively.
The Population Reference Bureau experts also estimated that the world
population grows 80 million every year, with 99% of the growth made
up by poor countries.
India will be the most populated country by 2050, with 1.628 billion
people, compared to 1.437 billion in China. The United States and
Indonesia will keep their places in the list with the population of
420 million and 308 million respectively.
The report also said that the world population will make up 7.95
billion in 2025 and 9.26 billion in 2050.
