During his trip, Emomali Rahmon “familiarized himself with the progress of construction work in the construction tunnel of the fourth level.”

Work in the fourth layer construction tunnel began in 2018, with the length of the structure, including the exit, measuring 1750 meters and a diameter of 15 meters.

According to the press service of the country’s president, Rahmon also reviewed the progress of construction work on the main dam of the Rogun Hydroelectric Power Station, as well as the construction work in the vertical shafts of the permanent water intake gates of the Rogun HPP at an elevation of 1300 meters.

The president’s working trip took place against the backdrop of reports about investments from the European Union in the Rogun HPP. Previously, a representative of the European Investment Bank reported that the European Commission had approached the bank with a request to become the “largest investor” in the Rogun HPP project.
