“The last straw that breaks the camel’s back,” announced the member of “No to Plunder” civic initiative Artsrun Kocharyan, speaking about the struggle against the rising prices of electricity.
He mentioned that Armenia is considered to be the electricity producing country although the electricity produced here is sold to the people living here in very high prices. And if we now allow the rising price of electricity then they will want to raise prices again by bringing different explanations.
ENA makes ineffective expenses. And probably Bibin’s (ENA Executive Director) car is obsolete. They want to buy a new car for him sponging on us,”-said the activist. The organizer of the initiative Levon Zakaryan exhorted everyone to struggle for our rights: “We have gathered not to be against, but for; for our rights, for justice and for the citizen’s right,”- he said.
“They are raising prices, but the problem is not solved because we are silent. We must struggle; we must raise our voice of the protest because the last straw breaks the camel’s back.
The authority wants to become rich and live better sponging on us, sponging on our negligible salaries.”- announced the activist Gevorg Sanoyan from the stage. Reminder, on 17 May it was decided that the price of electricity is raised by 6.93 AMD.
