We can confidently say that the hydrological and political issues are gradually converging and will soon form complementary categories, write Alexey Mikhalev and Kubatbek Rakhimov for the 4th Central Asian conference of the Valdai Discussion Club

In Search of Hydro-Saving Technologies for Central Asia, or on the Way to the Eurasian Nuclear Consortium

The ideas mentioned in this article are just an attempt to propose a way out of the system of hydraulic dependence for a huge and resource-rich region. This is a discussion about the potential of a nuclear consortium, along with a critique of hydrocentric energy, write Kubatbek Rakhimov and Alexey Mikhalev.
