Hard!Hungary approves the start of the Russian nuclear power project

The construction of nuclear power projects that Hungary's approval of cooperation with Russia is regarded as an important performance of the EU's increasingly expanding internal policies in Russia.

Following the Ukraine Zhaparo Nuclear Power Station, another nuclear power plant is moving the eyes of Europe.

According to Agence France -Presse reports on the 27th, the Hungarian government regulatory authorities formally approved a major nuclear power cooperation project with Russia, which allowed to start construction within a few weeks. The project stipulates that Russia helps Hungary to build two nuclear reactors at the Poksh Nuclear Power Station with a contract worth 12.5 billion euros.

According to the agreement between the two parties, the 10 billion euros of the cooperation funds came from Russia's loans, and the remaining 2.5 billion euros were paid by Hungary.

The nuclear power cooperation between Russia and Hungary signed a contract in 2014, but the construction time was delayed. Especially after the outbreak of the Russian and Ukraine conflict, European anti -Russia terror Russia has risen, and the European Union has imposed many sanctions on Russia. Earlier, Finland canceled cooperation with Russia in Hanschvi Nuclear Power Plant, and Russia called "extremely disappointment."

Although the nuclear energy field is not among the EU sanctions against Russia, the construction of nuclear power projects that Hungary's approval of cooperation with Russia is regarded as an important manifestation of the increasingly expanding internal policy of the EU. At the same time, the Hungarian government is also questioned and even blamed by mainstream public opinion in Europe and the United States.

In this regard, Hungary said that this is an important step to ensure the safety of its own energy and promote low -carbon emission reduction. Hungarian Foreign Minister Siaolto said in social media: "In this way, we will be able to ensure the energy security of Hungary for a long time and protect the people from the influence of the fierce fluctuation of energy prices."

In the past year, affected by factors such as the tight supply of petrochemical energy and abnormal weather, the price of electricity in Europe has soared. However, unlike most EU countries, the proportion of nuclear power in Hungary's energy structure has always been higher.

At present, the Pokshn nuclear power plant has 4 VVER-440 nuclear reactors, which was put into operation in the 1980s. This nuclear power plant with Soviet technology has supplied about 40%of the power of Hungary.

According to Russia and Hungarian agreements, Russia will supply two more advanced VVER-1200 nuclear reactors for Hungary, which can double the Pokshke nuclear power plant to double the power generation and plan to be completed and put into operation by 2030. Hungarian Foreign Minister Siaolto said: "This is a big step, an important milestone."
