“We especially talked about cooperation on the construction of new units of the Bushehr nuclear power plant in Iran and generally welcomed the commitment of all our colleagues from the economic bloc of the governments of the two countries and the business circles of the Russian Federation and Iran to the comprehensive development of a multifaceted partnership,” Lavrova quoted TASS as saying.
In November 2020, it was reported that a ceremony was held in Iran to start the construction of the second power unit of the Bushehr NPP with the participation of Russian specialists.
