– Atomexpo is interesting for us

Atomexpo 2009 international forum is taking place in Moscow May 26–28.

Atomexpo is interesting for us as the share of nuclear energy is total power production is steadily growing and we also want to be its essential part.

I was presented at the opening of the forum and I felt a spirit of breakthrough, a kind of revolutionary spirit, as, presently, nuclear energy is one of the most actively developing segments of the energy sector and will, probably, gain the biggest share in it.

I think that this forum will stimulate international development in this field as nuclear energy production is impossible without international cooperation.

To remind, in early Mar 2009 Siemens concluded a preliminary cooperation agreement with Rosatom.
