Re: Conflicting reports re: Armenian supply line

Reports of fuel shortages in RA due to South Ossetia conflict relate back to August 12, 2008. http://www.redorbit.com/news/busines...ssetia_crisis/

Armenian-Georgia railway reportedly back up and running, ten railcars crossed Georgian-Armenian border carrying petrol. http://www.azg.am/EN/2008082702

But, first railcars did not carry any petrol, just grain and basic supplies. http://www.armenialiberty.org/armeni...FAEE4A0486.ASP

Hey, there's a fuel shortage. http://armenianow.com/?action=viewAr...D=1201&lng=eng

"the worst fuel crisis in Armenia since the early 1990s, petrol was either available at an extremely high price or sold to privileged customers as in old Soviet times, or alternatively sold in a rationed fashion to holders of prepaid vouchers – maximum 10 liters per vehicle. The regular price of 410-440 drams (about $ 1.36 – 1.46) per liter raised up to price of 500-700 drams (about $ 1.65-2.30) per liter those days.

All along, state structures had insisted that there was no problem connected with petrol in the country."
