“I can’t give you a 100% remedy, what the increase in potato prices are due to. For that, not only do you have to be a serious expert, but also you have to do a serious analysis, and I have come here without those analyses,” said Republican Party of Armenia MP Lernik Alexanyan at a press conference today.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The National Assembly deputy doesn’t doubt that the increase is connected with climate conditions and market relationships. Adding to the possible reasons, he said: “Naturally, they’ve planted less, since the market’s always had a surplus.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In Alexanyan’s opinion, the state is obligated to have resources and be able to roughly forecast such situations.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The MP also turned his attention to the price of wheat, saying that they’re taking serious measures toward decreasing its prices. Two-thirds of wheat, said Alexanyan, is imported mainly from Russia, where an increase in the price of wheat is observed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Alexanyan didn’t consider connecting the increase in prices with oligarchs in Armenia. Rather, he connects them, 60-70%, he says, with a “bad year.”<\/p>\n
