Ukraine hopes to sign an agreement in June for the purchase of two nuclear reactors from Bulgaria to compensate for the loss of the Russian-occupied six-reactor plant in Zaporizhzhia, the head of Ukraine's Energoatom company, Petro Kotin, told Reuters.
The new reactors will be used in the Khmelnytskyi nuclear power plant in western Ukraine and will be equipped with Russian-designed equipment that Kyiv wants to import from Bulgaria, Kotin said. He added that the initial price of the two units was 600 million dollars, but over time Sofia has been trying to raise the price, while Ukraine is "focused on the price of 600 million dollars", BTA reports.
