YEREVAN, MAY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. A special sitting of the RA State
Commission on Protection of Economic Competition was held on May
4, during which proceedings were initiated in connection with the
possibility of an anticompetition agreement in the liquefied (natural)
gas market.

The Commission’s monitoring showed that after the end of subsidizing,
in the last 2-3 days there has been a sharp increase in the price of
gas purchased by gas filling stations and then sold by them. According
to the press service of the Commission, during the proceedings,
all facts will be examined, and the justification for the rise in
the price of filled liquefied gas and the possibility of violation
of the RA Law on Economic Competition will be analyzed.
