President Ilham Aliyev: “Water and sewage lines are priority infrastructure projects today”

    On July 18 Ilham Aliyev chaired a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers dedicated to the results of socioeconomic development in the first six months of 2013 and future objectives. He said that six months of the year have been very positive.

   The head of State drew attention that drinking water and sewage systems are priority issues among the infrastructure projects: “Among the infrastructure projects I want to emphasize those on water and sewage. These projects will continue to be implemented in the coming months and years. I want to note water and sewage projects are the main priority today. As you can see, we commission or lay the foundation of a water supply project almost every week and every month in different locations around the country. This process has already become widespread. Sufficient funds are provided in the state budget. Water and sewage lines are priority infrastructure projects today.”

   At the meeting it was noted that Action plan on construction of modern drinking water and sewerage systems will be continued.
