The U.S. is ready to cooperate with Russia on energy from the ZNPP

Only the operating organization of the Russian Federation can be responsible for the operation of the station

Rosatom has received messages from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) about the readiness of the United States to cooperate in the field of electricity generated by the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), the head of the state corporation Alexei Likhachev said.

He stressed that Rosatom is open to international cooperation. However, the ZNPP should be controlled by the operating organization in accordance with Russian law.

Any deviation from these principles is a threat to the loss of this very security, a threat of an incident.
