16:25 ~U 15.01.14
The cold January of 2014 may see heated developments in the form
of civil disobedience campaigns, according to Andrias Ghukasyan,
a former presidential candidate.
Speaking to Tert.am, the politician said that the higher cost of
living, imposed upon the population through increased electricity
and natural gas prices, may stir up a wide social unrest leading to
serious exacerbations.
“This is a serious social situation, which may have political
implications. Inert though our society is, its ability to tolerate
this economic burden is not inexhaustible. So there is the point where,
I am sure, they will demonstrate their activeness,” he noted.
