    NEGOTIATIONS WITH RUSSIAN SIDE ON PRICE FOR GAS IMPORTED TO ARMENIA
    STILL CONTINUE

    YEREVAN, MARCH 31, NOYAN TAPAN. The negotiations with the Russian
    side on the price for natural gas continue and it is not clear
    yet when they will be over. Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed
    about it at about 2:00 pm, on March 31, by RA Ministry of Energy
    Press Service. The same source neither refuted nor confirmed the
    rumours that for the purpose of avoiding the growth in price for the
    supplied gas Armenia gave Russia the 5th block of Hrazdan HPP and the
    Iran-Armenia gas pipeline. Nevertheless, in response to the question,
    if the above-mentioned variants are among the issues to be discussed,
    they said at the Press Service: "There are many variants and they
    will be made public only after achieving a final result". To recap,
    during the March 29 working meeting of RA President Robert Kocharian
    and RA Minister of Energy Armen Movsisian it was decided to continue
    the negotiations with the Russian side on gas price and to submit the
    package of proposals to be formed at the end of them to the public
    after coordinating it with the President. By the March 10 decision
    of the Public Services Regulatory Commission a tariff for natural
    gas higher than the previous one by 50% has been already set for the
    population, 90 thousand drams for 1000 cubic meters of gas (about 200
    USD, and a tariff higher by 85%, 146.5 USD, for big consumers). The
    new tariffs will come into force on April 10.
