Poghosian: Food prices went up 7-10% after elections

Food prices in Armenia went up 7-10% after the elections in the
country, Chairman of the Association of Consumers of Armenia Armen
Poghosian said at the meeting with reporters today.
`Prices are restrained ahead of each election, and a rise in prices
begins following the elections,' Poghosian noted. According to him, in
this case the price growth has to do with election bribes.
Poghosian divided price increases into nominal and criminal. `We try
to fight against nominal price increases as much as we can. As regards
criminal increases, when there is much air in bread and water in
granulated sugar, we propose conducting checks and examining bread and
sugar markets,' Armen Poghosian said.
In his opinion, the methodology and approaches of Armenia's National
Statistical Service are incorrect. Poghosian noted that the
NSS-released 3.2% growth in consumer prices does inspire trust.
