    "WE SHALL FIND AN OPTIMAL VERSION FOR GAS PRICE"

    A1+
    [06:43 pm] 04 April, 2006

    Today while answering the question on gas price increase at the
    press conference the NA Chairman Arthur Baghdasarian announced that
    the Armenian side will admit any solution to gas price through the
    mechanism of compromise. He hopes that certain agreement will be
    reached on that matter with the Russian side. Arthur Baghdasarian
    rejected the rumors about giving the Russian side the Energy and
    Power Station of Hrazdan and the Iran - Armenian gas main.

    But the NA Chairman is not against the solution of the matter by this
    method. Moreover, he thinks that the project "Property in place of
    the debt" was a successful bargain. Now we must take care of those
    enterprises, make the Russian side exploit them and import the product
    to the Russian market. We shall find an optimal version for gas price."

    When Mr. Baghdasarian was directly asked about his position about
    giving the Russian side the Energy and Power Station of Hrazdan and
    the Iran - Armenian gas main he answered that they are against any
    bargain contradicting our national security and interest, but the
    details of the bargain must be appreciated properly.

    DON'T LOOK FOR COMPLIMENTS, MR. BAGHDASARIAN

    At today's press conference Arthur Baghdasarian also spoke about the
    program "Parliamentary week" which has aroused public resonance. He
    said he receives 2 - 3 international delegations a day and it is not
    his guilt that his meetings are broadcast in the program.

    He didn't want to comment on Galust Sahakian's announcement that the
    program is Baghdasarian's monologue. In regard of various political
    parties' announcements about the program "Parliamentary week" Arthur
    Baghdasarian said that he will say who and how much pays for different
    announcements in due time.

    By the way, the NA Chairman urges that they have held a survey and
    can say how much time each fraction is given during the program. As
    it turns out they are all given equal opportunities. Anyway, Arthur
    Baghdasarian expressed his wish to have a separate TV Channel which
    will give a full coverage of the Parliamentary procedure. "I can
    assure you that there is not free frequency and you will not succeed
    in attempting to find it." In response to our remark on the matter he
    said, "Some people view the Parliament as a link out of the State and
    we have difficulties in finding free frequency as it is not profitable
    for them," but they will have a separate TV channel and the rumours
    about "Parliamentary Week" will end.

    By the way, it is already 4th year of "A1+"' embattlement, and when
    Arthur Baghdasarian was asked to estimate the level of speech freedom
    the latter answered, "I miss "A1+" and wish it regain its broadcasting
    licence."

    ARTHUR BAGHDASARIAN COMBATS WITH HIS DEEDS

    "The licentious behavior deprives people of their hope," Arthur
    Baghdasarian claimed while speaking of corruption combat and did not
    go into details.

    He mentioned that corruption may be combated with actions and words,
    he prefers combating with deeds and added that an international
    conference will be held in Armenia on corruption combat from April 6 -
    7 in which representatives from 10 countries will participate.

    "Such international conferences are always held in Georgia. They will
    also be held in Armenia in 2006 on the theme of combating intimidation,
    chemical weapon spread and for the purpose of implementing democratic
    reforms."
