Russia Weighs Plan to Build Small Nuclear Power Plants in Iran
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom is in talks with Tehran on the possibility of building small nuclear power plants in Iran, Rosatom CEO Alexey Likhachev said on Friday.
"At the beginning of this year, Iranian partners came up with a proposal to expand the agenda from large units to small ones, including small modular reactors,” Likhachev told the Rossiya 1 broadcaster.
“Such negotiations are underway, and I hope that sooner or later agreements will be concluded," he added.
