ECONOMY MINISTER: WB EXPERTS’ RECOMMENDATIONS IN ENERGY SPHERE WERE NOT THE FINAL CONCLUSION

Georgia’s Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development Giorgi Kobulia responded today to media publications about energy research of the World Bank (WB) and declared: “Information that, allegedly, electricity tariffs will catastrophically change as a result of construction of hydroelectric stations, is the clearest type of lie and sees manipulative deception of the population”.

According to the Minister, “In fact, experts of the WB prepared about a year ago recommendations of working character, which were intended for internal use and were not the final conclusion”.
