Russia and Kuwait signed on Monday a memorandum of intent to cooperate in the sphere of nuclear power.
The two countries will cooperate on the entire range of the peaceful use of atomic energy, in particular, in designing, developing and building a nuclear power plant, as well as in nuclear medicine and the nuclear fuel cycle, the memorandum said.
"We in Russia are developing the atomic energy sector on a wide scale and we welcome Kuwait's plans to develop it, too," Sergei Kiriyenko, head of the Rosatom state-controlled nuclear corporation, said.
Rosatom sees good prospects for cooperation with Kuwait, he added.
