“Why don't we conclude a special contract for water supply? Maybe we will sell water at the same price as Russia’s gas to us? ”He said.

Kamelchuk recalled that Ukrainians also live in Crimea, therefore political motives cannot influence the situation with water, the policy of banning supplies, taking into account Kiev’s statements about its intention to return the peninsula to control, is short-sighted.

Earlier, the deputy from the party “European Solidarity” Alexey Goncharenko said that the committee of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine decided on the impossibility of supplying water to Crimea “before its de-occupation”.

Kiev blocked the supply of fresh water to the peninsula along the North Crimean Canal in the spring of 2014.
