Moscow, Kyiv should resume cooperation on Chornobyl – NPP director
Ukraine and Russia must resume joint nuclear safety projects at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant (NPP), its Director General Ihor Hramotkin said.
"Nuclear radiation safety is the sphere that is beyond political relations. Russia and Ukraine are experiencing difficult times, but we already need to think how to rebuild our relations in the future and why not start restoring them now by addressing our common big problem – the consequences of the Chornobyl disaster?" Hramotkin said in an interview with the Ukrainian edition of the Dzerkalo Tyzhnia (Mirror Weekly, ZN.UA).
The NPP continues interacting with Rosatom's regional center for Eastern Europe, just to keep a finger on the pulse, to promptly receive information about opportunities, technologies and colleagues' studies in the field of decommissioning of nuclear facilities and handling radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel, the NPP director said.
