Kyrgyzstan to continue work on construction of small nuclear power plant

Kyrgyzstan will continue work on the construction of a small nuclear power plant. The Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Akylbek Japarov said at a press conference.

He noted that all neighboring countries are working in this direction.

«Belarus has built, Russia also has. Kazakhstan stated that it would build, Uzbekistan has projects. We will not build large reactors like our neighbors. Nuclear power plants will be developed all over the world,» Akylbek Japarov said.

It was reported earlier that Rosatom and Kyrgyzstan agreed to cooperate in the construction of a low-power nuclear power plant. The Ministry of Energy said that the Kyrgyz side only expressed interest in studying the promising development of Russian nuclear scientists based on the RITM-200N reactor.
