YEREVAN. - Turkey may reduce the flow of water in Akhuryan and Araks
Rivers, Armenian MP from Orinats Yerkir party Khachik Harutyunyan
said speaking in the parliament on Tuesday.
The demand for water in the next 15-20 years can be satisfied only
by half due to climate and the growth of industrial and domestic
water use.
The MP said Armenia may face serious problems because of Turkey's
self-centered policy. Ankara will try to influence the regional
processes by means of water.
Harutyunyan offered to develop a network of reservoirs in Armenia
and switch to moderate water consumption. The flow amounts to about
3.7 billion cubic meters per year of which 1 billion can be stored
to gain benefits, including political ones, in the future.
