The U.S. wants to contribute to the construction of the Polish nuclear power plant

The US Ambassador to Poland, Mark Brzeziński, and the President of Westinghouse Polska, presented the Minister of Climate and Environment, Anna Moskwa, with a conceptual and executive report on cooperation in the field of civil nuclear energy. The document is the result of analyzes, studies and assessments lasting 18 months. The report is a road map for the implementation of the Polish nuclear program, including the construction of all six planned units of the future power plant. It also establishes a framework for Polish-American cooperation in the field of nuclear energy for the next 100 years. The partnership is intended for the US to provide technological support.

– This is one of the most important moments in our bilateral relations. The United States offers Poland a 100-year partnership with world-class technology and financing that will enable the creation of a Polish nuclear energy program, Brzeziński wrote on Twitter. – This comprehensive report reflects the American commitment to Poland’s energy security and may begin an intensive development of multidimensional strategic relations in the field of security and economy – said the diplomat.
