MOSCOW, December 8. /TASS/. Russia may build 20-24 nuclear power

The new road map on the countries’ cooperation in the nuclear

“We have big plans for nuclear energy cooperation,” Kadakin said,
addressing a news conference ahead of Putin’s visit. “Russia had agreed

said. An agreement on the construction of the plant’s third and fourth
units will be signed during Putin’s visit, he also said.
