Armenia will manage without Iranian gas, Lusine Harutyunyan, the
press secretary of the Ministry of Energy told Panorama.am.

According to her the Russian gas is sufficient for our country,
but if we feel we lack that blue fuel, we’ll import gas from Iran,
says the press secretary.

Lusine Harutyunyan said that Iran-Armenia gas pipe line is ready for
the exploitation. Regarding the price, she said that "Iranian gas
does not have any privilege compared with the Russian gas."

Remind: it was much spoken that Iranian gas would be imported into
Armenia and since 1 April Armenia would receive Iranian gas. But it
turns out that we’ll manage without that gas.
