    Armenia's Economic Competition Protection Commission (ECPC) plans to
    apply serious sanctions against unfair entrepreneurs, ECPC chairman
    Ashot Shahnazaryan has said.

    He said the commission held monitoring of a number of large retailers
    initiated talks with large importers, after which the prices for
    certain goods were reduced, Armenian news agency Mediamax reported
    on 4 March.

    He said that now the situation in the food markets is calm, and the
    growth of prices by 10-12 per cent is seen in petrol, vegetable oil,
    butter and sugar.

    "I see no abuse in today's prices," Mediamax quoted Shahnazaryan
    as saying. He said that the commission will not allow economically
    ungrounded growth of prices, saying that 4-5 per cent increase is
    possible. He said the availability of necessary volumes of petrol
    among importers for the nearest three or four months does not influence
    the price formation, Mediamax reported.
