Government to continue providing gas subsidies for vulnerable families

The government of Armenia ruled to allocate AMD 70,5 million to the Ministry of energy and Natural Resources.

The funds provided will be transferred to ArmRosGazprom to subsidize the January-March 2013 gas expenditures of socially vulnerable families.

In this context, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan pledged consistent support to unprovided-for families in the face of impending gas price hike.
