LONDON, December 12 (IranMania) - Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Gholam-Reza Aqazadeh said that the Russian contractor of Bushehr nuclear power plant has financial problem in fulfillment of its commitments regarding completion of this project and it expects Iran to provide financial aid beyond the initial agreement, IRNA reported. He made the remark at a joint press conference with his Russian counterpart Sergei Kiriyenko. Aqazadeh declared Iran's readiness to attempt to solve the financial difficulties facing the power plant project to facilitate finalizing it. In response to a question whether the required fuel will be dispatched to Iran towards the end of the current Iranian year (ending on March 20), he said that the relevant schedule has not changed. The official said that in his meeting with Kiriyenko, the agreement which was signed by Iran and Russia on September 26 was revised. He noted that both sides are willing to finalize the project on schedule. "However, given that we are facing problems for implementation of Bushehr nuclear power plant, both sides are required to cooperate," he added. For his part, Kiriyenko told reporters that some improvement is observed in the trend of implementation of the project, but that it is not sufficient. He said that to expedite the project, Iranian and Russian experts are required to further exchange views. The Russian official referred to financial problems as one of the most important impediments to the project as well as the failure in dispatch of the pre-made equipment by third party countries. Members of the Russian delegation accompanying Kiriyenko, who will leave Tehran on Tuesday, are scheduled to pursue the problems facing this project. +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
