MOSCOW, April 14. /TASS/. Rosatom is ready to answer any questions the new Hungarian government has concerning the Paks-2 nuclear power station, to review its parameters and price with the new power apparatus, CEO Alexey Likhachev told reporters at a briefing in Cairo.
He also said that Ukraine resumed shelling the Zaporozhye nuclear power station after the Easter truce.
TASS has compiled the key statements of the head of the state corporation.
The new Hungarian authorities have already talked a lot about Paks-2: "We hear that there’s interest in our project as the winning head of the party has already talked about it several times, including a little critically regarding, say, the price.
"First of all, we have nothing to hide and expect similar trust in the implementation of this project. This is not a Russian or Rosatom project. This project is purely in the interests of the Hungarian people. What it will do cannot be overstated: more than 70% of Hungary's energy mix will be stable nuclear electricity. This will cover not only Hungary’s own energy supply, but also give it the opportunity to export the most valuable thing in Europe today - energy in general and electric power in the first place, electricity in the first place. This will make the Hungarian state and the Hungarian people self-sufficient and independent, and also make it extremely competitive as an economic operator."
