New Delhi: India said it has signed agreements with Russia for future units of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project in Tamil Nadu.
Foreign minister Dr S. Jaishankar, who is on a visit to Russia, is expected to hold talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov and the two ministers plan to discuss bilateral ties as well as the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza and issues related to groups such as BRICS.
“Today, in the presence of Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov, we signed some important agreements pertaining to future units of the Kudankulam Nuclear Project,” Jaishankar said at a gathering with the Indian community in Moscow.
Construction of the first two units began nearly two decades ago as part of a project signed by both countries. New Delhi and Moscow have enjoyed a close relationship for decades and India has refused to condemn Russia over the war with Ukraine.
