Brotherly help

Over the course of 1.5 years, Russia will remove 2.3 tons of spent nuclear fuel from Serbia. The corresponding agreement was signed during a conference of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna. The removal will be carried out under the auspices of the IAEA in accordance with Russian-American agreements on the removal of spent nuclear fuel from research reactors in Eastern Europe and the CIS countries. Officially, Russia took upon itself not the functions of a garbage collector, but the mission of a guardian of peace: according to the agreement, the task of the signatories is to prevent hazardous materials from falling into the hands of terrorists.
