MOSCOW, September 26. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed participants of the World Atomic Week, Donald Trump proposed a plan to end the war in Gaza, and ex-French president received a sentence. These stories topped Friday's headlines across Russia.
By 2030, Russia will launch the first-ever closed-loop nuclear energy system. This technology will address the issue of accumulating radioactive waste, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, speaking before participants of the World Atomic Week on September 25. The event in Moscow is attended by delegates from more than 100 countries. Belarus, Armenia, Myanmar and Ethiopia are represented at the highest level. International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi has also visited the forum and emphasized the need to cooperate with the BRICS Bank to finance the construction of new nuclear power plants.
Russia, like no other, recognizes the importance of advancing nuclear energy. For instance, in the coming decade, energy use by data centers will rise more than three-fold, Putin noted at the forum’s plenary session. Russia is already working on modular data processing systems at its nuclear power plants as they provide the most reliable continuous power supply.
