| Summary: | As a result of global climate change against the background of natural water
supply deterioration and river water content reductions, nowadays Ukraine is
facing the problem of environmental degradation of river basins.
<br><br>
In light of this, we suggest that achieving an acceptable level of water
security in Ukraine should be defined as the strategic objective of national
water policy. The state of national water security should be evaluated by
its progress in certain sectors. The basic principles of the new water
policy of Ukraine are supposed to be represented in Water Strategy of
Ukraine. Integrated water management by the basin principle should serve as
the main tool for achieving the objectives of water security. |
