Neighbors Accountable for Iran Dust, Sand Storms

Iran’s neighboring states, including Iraq and Turkey, should be held accountable for the intense dust and sand storms that frequently slam the country, a water resource management expert said.
“Iraq does not comply with agreements concluded with Iran to help fight the menace of sand storms, and Turkey insists on fulfilling its burning dam-building desire without respecting the water rights of neighbors,” Zahir Heidarinejad was also quoted as saying by IRNA.
As per the deal signed between Iraq and Iran, the former is obliged to take measures including tree plantation and mulching to stabilize soil, yet the Arab nation has almost done nothing in this regard, he added.
