The election in Armenia have been followed by a rise in prices, Anahit
Bakhshyan, a Heritage party member, told journalists on today. "I am
surprised that the election have been followed by a price rise. I mean
the gas price, as well as prices for dairy products. And they are
going to raise tuition fees as well," she said and added that the
consequence of the process is emigration. "People are silently
expressing their discontent by leaving the country," she said.
On the other hand, Bakhshyan does not think the price rise may cause
social unrest.
Anahit Bakhshyan thinks that total raising of prices in Armenia is
conditioned by striving of oligarchs to return expenses at the past
election.
To note, the tuition fee at Yerevan State University will rise
starting the next academic year. The minimal fee will be 400 thsd
drams ($1000) instead of $300 thsd last year. The tuition fee at
judicial faculty of the University will grow from 700 thsd drams up to
800 thsd drams. The growth of the fee will touch only the students
which entered the University in 2013. Pro-rector of the Yerevan State
University, Aleksandr Grigoryan, said that salary of the University
teachers will grow thanks to the growth of the tuition fee.
