Muzaffar Soliyev also said that Uzbek people have a debt of 411 billion soums for water consumption.
In addition, he expressed his opinion on loans.
“If funds in the amount of $4.5 billion will be borrowed from foreign banks, then by 2030, 91.2% of the population will be provided with drinking water, and 51.1% - with water supply services,” he noted.
