The local side, as the customer of the project, will act as the "general operator" in the consortium for the construction of nuclear power plant in Kazakhstan.
This is reported by TASS with reference to the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.
In an interview with the newspaper "Ana tili" ("Native language") the Kazakh president stated:
"This issue was discussed with Vladimir Putin during his visit to Astana. We have agreed that the Kazakh side will act as the general operator in the consortium as the customer of the project.
It was about the possible participation of Rosatom, which has high competencies and extensive experience in building nuclear power plants abroad."
Kassym-Jomart Tokayev noted that negotiations are also underway with a Chinese company, taking into account China's great success in the construction of civilian nuclear facilities.
There is interest in the project from other foreign corporations, including Western ones.
