"No matter the importer is an MP or not, he should operate within
the confines of the law," Speaker of the Armenian National Assembly
Tigran Torosyan said in parliament, Monday.
Commenting upon the fact that the increase in prices of food
commodities in Armenia doesn’t comply with the price increase in
the international market, T.Torosyan said: "First and foremost, the
reasons of the price increase should be found out," he said. Those
who are abusing the price increase to obtain excessive profit should
be punished by the law, he added. "Product prices are not the problem
of the National Assembly. The parliament has created a state body to
solve these problems. I think, the relevant commission is empowered
to suppress such phenomena," he stressed.
