Yerevan, 11 August: The volume of natural gas supplies to Armenia
through Georgia has fallen, a spokeswoman for [the Armenian-Russian
company] ArmRosGazprom, Shushan Sardaryan, told Mediamax today.
"At present, we are trying to clarify the reasons and the exact volume
of reduction in gas supplies to Armenia through the gas pipeline,
which passes through Georgia", Shushan Sardaryan stated, noting that
gas supplies to Armenia had reduced for about 30 per cent.
"At present, the shortage is covered by the reserves of ArmRosGazprom,
which, taking into account that it is summer and the consumption is
lower, should be enough to normalize the supplies," Shushan Sardaryan
stated.
