83% of Aras river water confiscated by Türkiye!

According to Energy Press, the results of a study by Tehran University show that by preventing water from entering other countries in the Aras river basin, Turkey intends to contain 83% of the potential of Aras within its borders.

Turkey has created water coalitions consisting of government officials, water experts, and journalists to share similar narratives from different actors at the international level to make sure that water is not a tool to achieve Turkey’s political goals.

Researchers have warned about the destruction of the economic areas in the northwest of Iran due to the reduction of Aras River.
