Argishti Kiviryan: "For years Russia has been taking such steps to
weaken Armenia"
Baku - APA. A protest against gas price rise has been held outside the
embassy of Russia in Yerevan, APA reports. The protestors held posters
such as "Russia, go away from Armenia!", "Gazprom, go away from
Armenia!".
The demonstrators handed a letter to the ambassador, which asks the
embassy to interfere in delaying the discussion of gas prices by the
Public Services Regulatory Commission.
Former presidential candidate Arkady Ghoukasian said that they
appealed to the ambassador, because Gazprom is the state-owned
enterprise.
Head of Armtoday news website Argishti Kiviryan said that the question
is not the struggle against rise in natural gas price: "The question
is about taking into account the attitude of the strategic partner to
Armenia in any issue. This is not the first case. For years Russia has
been taking such steps to weaken Armenia. Suffice it to mention the
"Compatriots" programme. Russia is constantly providing Azerbaijan
with weapons, with which Armenia is at the state of war. Allies don't
treat to each other so."
