ArmInfo. All companies wishing to import petrol must be allowed to do
it, the Armenian National Congress (an assembly of supporters of the
first president of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrossyan) says in a statement
commenting on the delays in the import of fuel into Armenia caused
by the Georgian-South Ossetin conflict.
The Congress says that as a result of the delays the shadow price of
one liter of petrol in Armenia has hit 1,000 AMD.
The Georgian-South Ossetian conflict continues having negative
consequences on Armenia as it is not clear when the Armenian goods
that are presently in Georgia will arrive in Armenia. The Armenian
authorities have made a number of mistakes in their fuel resource
management strategy. Particularly, it was a big mistake to zero
Armenia's fuel reserves. One more mistake is that the authorities
have not developed alternative fuel import schemes, particularly,
fuel might be imported from Iran. Besides, it is necessary to abolish
the monopoly over the import of liquid fuel into Armenia as monopoly
may result in energy crisis in the country.
