“Alternative electric networks are a necessity as monopolies imply abuse,” Mr Safaryan said.

He recalled mobile communication.

Mr Safaryan is for liberal competition.

As regards an audit of the Electric Networks of Armenia company, he considers it most important.

“An audit will show the company’s efficiency and losses, which must be checked.”
