In occupied Crimea, there are enough own fresh water reserves. All the problems with the water supply to the cities are related to the fact that the infrastructure on the peninsula had not been addressed previously.

This was announced at a large press conference by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Apparently, there are enough reserves of good fresh water in Crimea. It’s just that in Soviet times, especially during the time when Crimea was part of Ukraine, they did not work. Today these works are being carried out widely, one of the directions it was desalination. ” it will be on time … for widespread use it is ineffective, “Putin said.

He also added that in the waters of the Azov Sea adjacent to the Crimea, there may be large reserves of fresh underground water. And he assured that Moscow will not save on the issue of water supply.

We will recall, the Ukrainian authorities say that there is more than enough water in Crimea for the needs of the population. Kiev insists that Crimeans are suffering from water shortages as it is diverted to Russian military installations. The occupying power of the peninsula blames Ukraine for the lack of water, since in 2014, after the occupation, the North Channel of Crimea was closed.

At the same time, in busy Yalta, for example, this week a new schedule for the supply of drinking water, which is supplied only six hours a day.
