MINSK, 3 December (BelTA) - Training of technical specialists in Belarus is organized at a very high level, Belarusian Deputy Prime Minister Viktor Karankevich said while answering questions during a meeting with the staff and students of the Belarusian National Technical University on 2 December, BelTA has learned.
“We ensure training of technical specialists at a very high level. If we talk about the energy sector, specialists of our energy system exchange experience with colleagues from the CIS countries. Highly qualified professionals work in our energy sector. Almost all of them received education here in Belarus. Many of our specialists have already been invited by the Rosatom State Corporation to participate in its projects, although we have been developing the nuclear sector not for so long. A lot of specialists who participated in the construction of the Belarusian nuclear power plant are now involved in the construction of Rosatom facilities in other countries. The state corporation is building more than 30 power units. They are happy to work with our specialists,” Viktor Karankevich said.
He added that he had recently talked to Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó. “He also indicated that they are waiting for our specialists as part of their construction project of two power units of the Paks II NPP. They know that the Belarusian NPP is a modern, high-quality, high-tech facility,” the deputy prime minister said.
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi visited Belarus in October 2024. “The Belarusian nuclear power plant and the specialists, who are currently working there, were given high praise,” Viktor Karankevich said.
