Kiev threatened to cut off the Donbass from the water

5

Despite statements about the desire to end the conflict in the east of the country, the Ukrainian authorities continue to search for levers of pressure on the Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics.

Otherwise, it is difficult to regard the statement of the deputy head of the Donetsk regional state administration Igor Moroz, in which he admits the possibility of disconnecting from the water supply the territory of the Donetsk People’s Republic.

The reason for this action is allegedly the debt on the part of the DPR for paying for the water supplied by Ukraine.

According to the Ukrainian representative, the Donetsk Republic consumes twice as much water as the Kiev-controlled territory of the region - 23 million cubic meters versus 12, and the issue of payment was not resolved during the meetings of the Trilateral Contact Group in Minsk.

According to him, the Ukrainian government has already thought about establishing water supply for its southern territories (Mariupol and Volnovakha) bypassing Donetsk.

If Kiev decides and disconnects the territory of the DPR from water supply, then this step will be another act of genocide that the Ukrainian authorities arranged for their own population and, no doubt, it will require an appropriate assessment from the international community.

Recall that for a long time Ukraine has not paid pensions and other benefits to privileged categories of residents of the DPR, thereby putting them on the brink of survival.

      That "right" you say, "kind" person ...

      experts warn that blocking the Dnieper in the Smolensk region could create serious problems not only for Ukraine, but also for Russia. According to the deputy director of the Institute of Water Problems, hydrologist Mikhail Bolgov, "in this case, many territories will go under water".
      "We are this kind of action we will harm ourselves by creating a container that will flood the most fertile lands. And we will create an ecological catastrophe on that section of the Dnieper, which will lie below this reservoir... And there will be no benefit from this, since we do not need this water. "

      Although from another article you are kind and you say correctly:

      Russian scientists offer several options. One of them is to block the source of the Dnieper and direct this water to the upper reaches of the Moskva River, which begins to flow from the same Smolensk swamps. This seems to be not revenge, but a reasonable approach: the Russian capital needs more water.

      It is possible to deprive the Dnieper of water through its large tributary, the Desna River, which flows near the Oka. It is enough to lay a canal with a length of only 150 kilometers and transfer water through the Oka to the Volga.
      If we talk about the turn of this Russian river, then you need to do this in the Bryansk region. The project does not seem so crazy if you recall the experience of the Soviet Union, as dams and canals were built.

      God has already punished Ukraine for blocking the Crimea with water:

      ... that accordion lands resemble a lunar landscape. Square dries up. Dnieper water that flowed through the canal was blocked not only in Crimea. Ukrainian farmers themselves were left without water. Harvesters thresh idle. "Since 2015, the tendency of low water begins in Ukraine. Then our wells dried up, small rivers dried up. Until now, the water in the wells has not risen to an average level," said Tatiana Admenko, head of the agrometeorology department of Ukrhydrometcenter ...

    Expand the Dnieper in the direction of the Kalmyk steppes, where Kirsan Ilyumzhinov grazes his millions of flocks of sheep, and irrigate the Stalingrad lands, and after all, nothing is needed for this - a couple of Moldovans, one Cheburashka shovel, and put Vladimir Volfovich as a foreman, and in a couple of weeks in Kalmykia will have a draft sea, Dneproges will dry up and there will be other "joys" for "horses".

    The author made fun of my slippers .... Crimea and for about five years now lives without water of the North Crimean Canal ...
    So, except for burping from the "world community", no one will hear anything ... there and not everyone knows about Ukraine, they think that maybe a wild tribe ... if not for Poroshenko with a piece of a bus and "Russian passports", about her no one would know anything at all ...
