Petros Ghazarian: Price hike was intentionally curbed before elections
“The price hike was intentionally curbed before the election, but an increase in prices has begun after the elections,” political commentator Petros Ghazarian said in a live television interview with Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty Armenian Service. In his words, a terrible situation is expected in Armenia in the winter. Ghazarian said the authorities must take the relevant steps.
“Why should the mayor have an unearned income of millions, while we have to pay a high price for gas? Why is $500 allocated for shooting a dog, while I have to pay 30% to the budget?” the political commentator asked.
In his opinion, social unrest is likely against the backdrop of such developments in Armenia.
