Ramazan Abdulatipov, Russia\'s ambassador to Tajikistan, said in Dushanbe on January 30 that Russia is better placed than other countries to complete the construction of the Roghun hydroelectric power station. A high-ranking Tajik official recently criticized Russian Aluminum (RusAl) for failing to observe an agreement on the construction of Roghun and said that other companies are interested in the project. Abdulatipov stressed that RusAl is a private company and disagreements between it and the Tajik government should not cause problems in bilateral relations.

Russian ministries are preparing a new bilateral agreement on Roghun, Abdulatipov said, for presentation to their Tajik colleagues and ratification in the first half of 2007. Abdulatipov commented, \"Our presidents are in charge of the project to build this power station, and it will happen.\" (RFE/RL)
