“Our 2008 objective is that prices for electricity and natural gas have an anti-inflationary effect (…) The prices for natural gas will be aligned according to the population’s supportability degree,” Vosganian said.

Prices for imported gas, which assures nearly 40% of the country’s annual consumption, will grow by 15-16% January 1.

Following the price hike, importers will pay $360-365 for 1,000 cubic meters of gas.
