Ukraine crises: UK reviewing deal on nuclear cooperation with Russia

LONDON: The United Kingdom is reviewing an agreement it made with Russian state firm Rosatom on nuclear cooperation in reaction to the crisis in Ukraine, the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) said.

In November last year, the UK signed an agreement with Rosatom to help the company prepare potentially to enter the UK market. However, the DECC said it had put the agreement under consideration over the Crimea situation.

“No decisions have been made on how this work will be taken forward, which is under consideration in the light of recent developments in Ukraine,” a foreign news agency quoted a DECC spokesperson as saying.

The Russian state firm has not commented on the statement.
