On February 24, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin signed a resolution on the allocation of 53 billion rubles. for the construction of nuclear power plants. He stated this during the meeting at the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station.
"This statement of Putin indicates that those high -profile plans that were announced that Russia will be introduced annually for 1-2 power units will be supported financially," said Alexander Perov, a leading expert at the National Energy Security Fund. "The state agreed to allocate money for this, although there was no doubt in this. Now these words of the prime minister once again confirm that the nuclear industry will nevertheless receive the money that it needs for development," the expert noted.
