In this regard, the parent organizations have been identified, for this year we have enough spare parts in full, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.
According to Karchaa, cooperation with Ukraine has weakened for a long time, and despite the sanctions, enterprises managed to prepare in advance for a possible shortage of Ukrainian parts.
“If we take nuclear energy, then these sanctions are never painful, never sensitive, this whole thing,” he stressed.
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.
Commenting on the restrictions imposed by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, Rosatom said that nuclear energy should be out of politics.
