OYP AGAINST ARMENTEL

Social

Today a group of members of Orinats Yerkir Party organised a rally opposite the government premises against the increase of telephone tariffs by “ArmenTel”.

They condemn “AmenTel” for violating human rights and qualify their decision as groundless. The participants of the rally claim that the Greece operator “which provides low-quality connection” hasn't got the right to increase the telephone tariffs for a number of reasons. First of all, they breech the provisions of License 60 and don't provide many remote dwelling places with telephone. Besides, the quality of the connection doesn't meet the lowest criteria existing all over the world.

The quality of the Internet connection “seriously hinders the development of informative technologies” whereas the Internet tariff in Armenia are the highest in the region. The strikers call on the government to prevent “ArmenTel” from implementing its subsequent whim and turn down their decision to increase the tariffs. Otherwise, they claim to involve large masses into the rally of protest.
