Russia is ready to ensure secured supplies of fuel to nuclear facilities Vietnam is starting to build shortly. Gleb Efremov, Commercial Director of the International Uranium Enrichment Center (IUEC), who is attending the 5th Nuclear Power Asia conference in Vietnam, told this in an interview with an ITAR-TASS’ correspondent.

However the IUEC Commercial Director noted that the decision on the quota transfer will be taken only after Kazakhstan’s and Armenia’s quotas have come into effect, which demands appropriate agreements. «We, the Russian party, think that in order to implement it practically, first of all Kazakhstan’s and Armenia’s quotas have to exists. So far formally there are no such quotas. No supply agreements have been signed either with Kazakhstan or Armenia», - Efremov noted.
