«We will not raise tariffs until we carry out reforms in the energy sector,» said the First Deputy Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan Kubatbek Boronov at a meeting of the SDPK parliamentary faction today.

According to him, the Government should approve a medium-term tariff policy. So far, tariffs will remain at the level of 2019.

«We considered two options for tariff policy. There was a proposal to raise the price annually taking inflation into account. Then, every year, growth would be 4-5 tyiyns. The second option is to retain the existing tariff. We are still discussing which option to choose. There is no final decision,» concluded Kubatbek Boronov.
