NEW RIGHTS MEMBER PREDICTS IRAN-ARMENIA PIPELINE COULD HURT GEORGIA
The Messenger, Georgia
May 22 2006
Sakartvelos Respublika reports that a member of the parliamentary
opposition party New Rights Irakli Iashvili forecast that after the
exploitation of the Armenia-Iran gas pipeline, the gas tariff will
be further increased in Georgia.
The article writes that Iashvili stated at a session of the Sector
Economy and Economic Policy Committee that the construction of the
Armenia-Iran gas pipeline will be completed late this year, which
means that while negotiating with Russia, Georgia will lose a key
lever – its role as the key transit route for Armenian gas.
