YEREVAN. - Armenian MP from Orinats Yerkir party Mher Shahgeldyan
called not to link gas price to Armenia-Russia strategic cooperation.
Asked whether it is better to purchase Russian or Iranian gas,
Shahgeldyan said the economists must decide.
The Public Services Regulatory Commission of Armenia has recently
set a new price of gas supplied by Russia.
Earlier ArmRusgasprom applied to the Commission with an offer to revise
the natural gas price. The move was opposed by the Armenian society and
provoked several protest actions near the government. The protestors
said increase in gas price would affect the prices of consumer goods
and services. The opinion was supported by economists, too.
