Russia and Burundi have signed a roadmap for establishing a dialogue in the sphere of peaceful uses of nuclear energy.

The document was signed on the sidelines of the XII ATOMEXPO-2022 International Forum by Alexey Likhachev, Director General of ROSATOM, and Ibrahim Uwizeye, Minister for Water Resources, Energy and Mines of the Republic of Burundi.

The roadmap defines concrete steps by the sides in 2022-2024 for the assessments of the prospects for nuclear generation in Burundi and the implementation of projects in the field of non-energy applications of nuclear energy in the country.

The parties plan to organise technical tours and seminars, develop plans for education and personnel training, as well as joint activities for shaping public opinion in the field of nuclear energy.
