YEREVAN, February 12. /ARKA/. One of the questions Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan took from parliament members today, after presenting his government’s plan of actions for the next five years was about Armenia’s energy security.
According to Pashinyan, Armenia has diversified natural gas supplies and should make consistent efforts to preserve atomic energy. He said by all parameters, Armenia has also great potential for the development of solar energy.
Pashinyan said energy security issue is not only an issue of energy resources. “It is very important that our economy be energy efficient. Energy saving technologies are of great importance for energy security,” said Pashinyan.
The prime minister also noted that this issue must be considered in terms of the country's membership in the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU).
"It is very important to fix that the EEU is a single economic zone, and energy prices in it should be very close to each other, otherwise the logic of the common market will not work," he said. -0-
