YEREVAN. – I believe the gas price will not rise.
The Acting Minister of Energy Infrastructures and Natural Resources of Armenia, Garegin Baghramyan, on Thursday told the aforesaid to reporters.
When asked about the accuracy of the information that the price of the Russian natural gas being supplied to Armenia will increase, Baghramyan responded: “I don’t think it will increase.
