Price rise inevitable - expert
13:59 - 10.05.13
Armen Poghosyan, Chairman of the National Association of Consumers,
told journalists on Friday that a rise in food prices is expected in
Armenia, which is a direct result of the latest elections in Armenia.
Specially, the bread, sugar and milk product prices are expected to rise.
`A price rise is evitable. But prices are more often raised in a
criminal way - an identical price is set for products of lesser
weight,' Poghosyan said.
A month ago the Association addressed a letter to the Armenian
president for ordering an inspection, particularly to check the weight
and quality of bread and sugar.
`We addressed the letter on April 11, but have not so far received an
answer. I learnt that the letter had been forwarded to the Food Safety
Inspection. But we would have addressed the letter there if we had
wanted to,' he said.
Poghosyan forecasts a rise in the gas, water and electric power prices as well.
