“We have no signals that the gas price will rise: we are discussing different scenarios on this issue”: Pashinyan

Nikol Pashinyan, Prime Minister of Armenia, said the government is considering different scenarios regarding gas supplies.

“At the moment there are no signals of a possible increase in tariffs on Russian gas, so I consider discussing this issue unnecessary. When there are, we will discuss it then. Are we thinking about how to manage the situation? Yes, because this is not news,” Pashinyan said, explaining that since 2018 he has faced this situation every year, because “the questions keep coming up.”

According to the prime minister, different scenarios are being considered. “But at the moment, this question is not on the table,” he said.
