By publishing this nonsense about Westinghouse contract in Ukraine, Russian state media do irreparable harm to its own #nuclear industry —Rosatom still provides fuel and services to Ukraine.
Ukraine’s state owned nuclear utility Energoatom signed an exclusive a $30 billion dollar agreement with Westinghouse to complete construction of Khmelnitsky.
There have got to be some VERY unhappy people at the Kurchatov Institute right now. For years they've used their prestige within Russia to assure that Ukraine continues to receive nuclear fuel, & to maintain active engagement with Ukraine in the nuclear energy sector, despite the Kremlin's attitude.
But you see this all the time : Russian media presents a solidly pro-nuclear narrative when it comes to Russian-built plants, and one as solidly anti-nuclear when it comes to all others.
Exactly. And what did they achieve? Literally nothing, apart from yet another "Ukraine sucks at everything" message that few people even in Russia believe.
Unless they start sell these articles to their proxies in the West, where they will be promptly picked up by Greenpeace & friends.
