Tehran (MNA): Russia’s state nuclear corporation, Rosatom, is in negotiations with Iran to construct another nuclear power plant, CEO Alexey Likhachev announced at the Future Technologies Forum.
“We see Iran actively advancing its nuclear energy sector. In response, we are accelerating our efforts and engaging in large-scale negotiations to determine the next site for nuclear energy development in Iran,” Likhachev stated.
The project’s timeline, he emphasized, will be determined by Iran’s leadership. “We can only proceed at the pace set by our client the government,” he said, as reported by the Russia-Islamic World website.
Likhachev previously noted that Iran is also interested in collaborating with Rosatom on both large-scale nuclear power plants and small nuclear generation projects.
