The governments of Russia and Myanmar have signed an agreement on cooperation in the field of peaceful uses of nuclear technology. Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev and Union of Myanmar Minister of Science and Technology Myo Thein Kyaw signed the intergovernmental agreement.

The agreement was signed at the Nuclear Technology Information Center in Yangon, Myanmar, a joint project between Myanmar's Ministry of Science and Technology and Russia's Nuclear Power Corporation. Myanmar Prime Minister, Chairman of the National Administrative Council and senior general Min Aung Hlaing said that the agreement is not only a cooperation in small nuclear power plants, but also a cooperation in the application of nuclear technology in multiple fields, which will promote the social and economic development of Myanmar.

Both sides believe that the intergovernmental agreement will strengthen Russia-Myanmar relations and lay a solid foundation for further cooperation. The Nuclear Technology Information Center in Yangon provides knowledge on the principles of the nuclear industry and the operation of nuclear power plants. It aims to generate interest in science education and enhance the personnel training process necessary to develop Myanmar's nuclear industry. Keywords: overseas news, engineering news

Alexey Likhachev said that today opened a new chapter in the history of Russia-Myanmar relations, and we will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the establishment of relations between the two countries in 2023. Creating new industries in the country will undoubtedly benefit Myanmar's energy sector, industry and economy. Nuclear power provides a stable and reliable supply of clean energy at a stable price.Editor/XingWentao
