Member of the Pre- Parliament Tigran Khzmalyan predicts mass protest
actions in Armenia.
"When our hard living people see their bills, they will go into the
streets, and nobody will be able to control them," Khzmalyan said.
He doubts that the rise in the public transport fares will lead to
the recurrence of the Brazilian scenario (when thousands of people
forced the local authorities to revise their decision to raise the
public transport fares).
"It will be a different story, but our people are already showing
signs of disobedience," Khzmalyan said.
An action of protest was held in front of Yerevan's Municipality on
Thursday. The people were protesting against the decision to raise
the public transport fares in Yerevan. The protesters began throwing
50 AMD coins at the building (by exactly as much the authorities are
going to raise the fares).-0-
