Gas price increase resulted in the situation of strain in Armenia, member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation - Dashnaksutyun and Parliamentarian Artsvik Minasyan said.

According to him, ARFD formed a working group to study the validation of the gas price increase and its consequences.

“Presently, there are urgent issues that need to be addressed, like why Armenia buys gas at $180 per 1000m3 and sells it to large consumers at $243 per 1000m3, whereas at $342 – to conventional consumers. For instance, Moldova purchases same gas at $263, but sells at $320 per 1000m3,” the MP noted.

Minasyan also questioned the credibility of gas meter recorders.
