Moscow expects to restore normal forms of cooperation with Washington in the nuclear energy industry, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said, starting off a meeting with former US Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz.
"During your service as US Secretary of Energy an intergovernmental agreement was signed, which is now called the Agreement for Cooperation in the Field of Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy," the minister recalled, expresing regret that the work to implement this agreement and practical contacts have been frozen since then for reasons outside of Russia's control.
"Still, I expect you to help revive normal forms of cooperation in the nuclear industry between our countries," TASS cited Lavrov as saying.
