Russia poised to build power plant in Belarus

RBC, 26.12.2007, Moscow 11:23:13.Russia is willing to participate in the construction of a nuclear power plant in Belarus if the latter country's government makes a decision to this effect, a source in the Russian government told journalists prior to a meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Union State in Moscow. Trade between the two countries was somewhat inefficient, as energy products accounted for the most significant part of Russia's imports to the republic. Nuclear power plant construction is projected to improve trade and economic cooperation between the two countries, the source said.
