"First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to the Belarusian president for his constant support of the Belarusian nuclear power plant project. His strict requirements and paternal care allowed us to build the world’s most advanced, safest and most beautiful nuclear power plant on Belarusian soil in the shortest possible time. Belarus has taken a decisive step into the world nuclear family, into the family of peaceful atom. Today, the BelNPP covers about 40% of the country’s electricity needs. Belarus has entered the elite of the world nuclear energy. I am grateful to the government, all colleagues for the fact that day after day for 12 years we have been moving towards this victory together. We did not just build the station. We shared our knowledge, technologies, and now a large number of Belarusian enterprises and specialists have become direct participants to Rosatom's foreign projects," Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev noted.
