A group of civil activists have filed an action in the Court of Appeal
against the decisions to increase the gas and electric power tariffs
in Armenia. This is the third claim of the activists, as the first
two were rejected. Activists say they will create "their own public
court" if their third claim is also rejected. Pinning no hopes with
the court, the activists complain that the tariffs were increased
neglecting the public opinion.
Gas and electric power tariffs increased in Armenia following the
rise in the tariff of the Russian gas imported in Armenia. Thus,
starting July 7, gas tariff increased from 132 to 156 AMD per cu
m. Electric power tariff increased from 20 to 30 AMD.
