Rosatom to build Belarusian nuclear power plant?

Rosatom Russian nuclear power company will be a general constructer of the nuclear power plant in Belarus, Belarusian officials inform.

Director of the department on development of nuclear energy of the Emergencies Ministry Mikalai Hrusha said it.

Mikalai Hrusha noted Belarus would have negotiations with the Russian party on this issue in early 2009.

It should be reminded that Astravets site was chosen for construction of the nuclear power plant. Northern west of Belarus is a land of beautiful lakes among the picturesque hills. Many national reserves are situated in this region. Naroch National Park, the most popular recreation place in Belarus, lies near.
