10-20 PERCENT PRICE RISE INEVITABLE IN ARMENIA
15:40 ~U 09.07.13
A price rise of 10 to 20 percent is expected in Armenia soon because
of the incompetent economic policy, to be followed by a further price
rise, Chairman of the Union of Consumers NGO Armen Poghosyan told
journalists on Tuesday.
"The fares will inevitably rise," he added.
"If the government or the municipal authorities ask how they should
act to prevent a price rise or, if prices do rise, how they should
act to avert people's curses," he said.
"I cannot say exact figures nor can anyone else, but our monitoring
shows that a 10 to 20 percent price rise will take place," he said.
Poghosyan said that at its meeting on Tuesday Armenia's government
will discuss the country's economic program until 2020, and he will
participate in the discussion.
"But I do not see a prospect of a competent analysis by the
government," Poghosyan said.
