The paper demonstrates that the decision to increase electricity tariffs was not introduced within a smooth or carefully managed process; rather, it revealed multiple shortcomings with broad social and political repercussions. The decision was adopted without sufficient preparation or meaningful public dialogue, which generated additional burdens and triggered public opposition and protests."}
