Gas price increase resulted in the situation of strain in Armenia,
said ARFD member, RA Parliamentarian Artsvik Minasyan.
According to him, ARFD formed a working group to study the validation
of the gas price increase and its consequences.
"Presently, there are urgent issues that need to be addressed, like why
Armenia buys gas at $180 per 1000m3 and sells it to large consumers
at $243 per 1000m3, whereas at $342 – to conventional consumers. For
instance, Moldova purchases same gas at $263, but sells at $320 per
1000m3," the MP noted.
Minasyan also questioned the credibility of gas meter recorders.
