MINSK, April 01. /ITAR-TASS/. Russia is ready to continue nuclear cooperation with Ukraine, Rosatom’s official has said.

“There has been no signal from Ukraine it might revise cooperation,” Rosatom's general representative in Eastern Europe Alexander Merten told a news conference on Tuesday.

Rosatom is determined to finalise the construction of the 3rd and 4th units of the Khmelnitsky nuclear power plant, he said.

“As of today we supply Ukrainian nuclear power plants with the fuel they need. No delays have occurred. We are also disposing of spent nuclear fuel,” he said.
