Armentel no longer has privileges

Starting on October 1, Armentel will no longer retain its communication monopoly in Armenia. This decision was made today by a governmental commission. Discount prices, seen as “balanced,” are to remain the same. To make the communication market freer, the commission announced 60 changes in licensing, removing special rights formerly enjoyed by Armentel.

We note that people had gathered at the meeting site, demanding to take part, and saying they had asked to do so and weren’t turned down. But they were only allowed inside after the meeting was concluded.
