Energoatom agreed with Canada’s Cameco on the purchase of nuclear fuel to be used at the Ukrainian nuclear power plants.
This was announced by the Office of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
During Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal’s visit to Canada, the Saskatoon-based Cameco and the Ukrainian state-owned Energoatom concluded a major supply agreement under which Cameco would deliver uranium to meet Ukraine’s nuclear fuel needs until 2035, according to the statement.
The agreement builds on a partnership agreement signed earlier this year and is expected to help Ukraine generate electricity while providing jobs to the middle class in Canada, the report notes. (Ukrinform/Business World Magazine)
