“We are convinced that nuclear energy should be out of the political conjuncture.

Rosatom works transparently around the world, in the interests of customers and partners, and with strict observance of international obligations and national legislation," TASS said in a statement.

Earlier, Zelensky signed a decree imposing sanctions against 200 companies and enterprises, including Russia's nuclear industry.

Rosatom and its subsidiaries were among the sanctioned enterprises.

According to the text of the document, the restrictions were introduced for a period of 50 years.
