Russia's Rosatom is open to discussing nuclear fuel issues at Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia plant with US Westinghouse, amid intellectual property concerns.
VLADIVOSTOK, Russia (Reuters) -The head of Russia's State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom Alexei Likhachev said on Friday the company was ready to discuss with the U.S.'s Westinghouse the issue of nuclear fuel at Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, RIA news agency reported.
In June, Russia asked the U.N. nuclear watchdog to mediate between Moscow and Washington to resolve the question of what to do with U.S. nuclear fuel stored at the Ukrainian power plant controlled by Russian forces.
Westinghouse and U.S. energy officials had previously raised intellectual property concerns with Russia in connection with the fuel issue, according to Likhachev.
