YEREVAN. - Our protest will not end unless our demands are met,” one of the protest initiators announced. The protestors approved the announcement by chants.

Banners reading ‘Our demands haven’t been met’ have appeared in Baghramyan Avenue.

Earlier, protestors struggling against electricity price hike refused to accept Armenian Presiden Serzh Sargsyan’s offer to conduct audit and wait for its results.

‘No to Plunder’ initiative member Vaghinak Shushanyan announced that they don’t consider this as a victory, are continuing to struggle, and will keep the Avenue blocked since the authorities have accepted none of the protestors’ demands.

According to Shushanyan, President Sargsyan neither cancelled Armenia’s Public Services Regulatory Commission (PSRC) decisions on electricity price hike, not promised to punish the police officers for their illegal actions on June 23.

On the sixth day of the sit-in launched in Baghramyan Avenue over electricity price hike, President Serzh Sargsyan conducted consultations with the representatives of the economic policy of the republic, during which he announced that before the conclusion of the international audit checking the substantiation of the application presented by the Electric Networks of Armenia (ENA) on electricity price hike, the government will bear the burden of tariff rise, paying 6,9 AMD.
