“ArmenTel” is stripped of all its monopoly rights as of today since today the decision of Public Services Regulatory Committee enters into force. Adopted on August 24, this decision abolishes exclusive rights of ArmenTel in basic and non-basic services, including voice over internet service. By doing so, the commission aims to liberalize the e-communication market in the republic.

The decision of the commission was conditioned by an arrangement with “VimpelCom” to put down monopoly rights while the company was buying “ArmenTel.” Currently, “VimpelCom” is the sole owner of “ArmenTel” closed joint stock company.
