UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik) - It would be a tragic mistake for the European Union to impose sanctions against the Russian nuclear energy industry, American film director Oliver Stone said on Thursday.

“It was a stupid mistake. The Russians have done a tremendously important job for the world. We should be all partners in this; we should not be in war. I pray for peace,” Stone said in a press briefing.
Russia is also now building nuclear plants mostly in Eurasia and they are very good engineers, he added.
Rosatom is a major nuclear government-backed agency, whereas the United States does not have such an entity.
Stone recently made a movie 'Nuclear Now' which is based on professor Joshua S Goldstein's book "A Bright Future." The documentary makes the case for nuclear power as a vital energy solution in the face of climate change.
