SIMFEROPOL, September 18. /ITAR-TASS/. Talks have stalled on delivering water from Ukraine to Crimea along the North Crimean Canal, says the chief of a committee overseeing supplies to the new Russian republic.
Ukraine halted flow from the Dnieper river through the canal to Crimea in April. But two months of preparing and submitting documents to Ukrainian authorities have brought no result, Crimea water economy committee chairman Igor Vail said speaking to reporters on Thursday.
