Russia and Uzbekistan start nuclear plant
Russia and Uzbekistan have begun constructing a nuclear power plant in the central-eastern region of Uzbekistan, aiming to meet the increasing demand for electricity. President Vladimir Putin and Shavkat Mirziyoyev oversaw the commencement of construction via a video call. The plant will include two large reactors, each with a capacity of approximately 1,000 megawatts, and two smaller reactors, each around 55 megawatts. This project is part of Russia's efforts to bolster its presence in Central Asia, a region rich in energy resources and minerals, amid growing competition from China and the United States.
