The best solution for Bulgaria, after the ruling of the Court of Arbitration in Geneva, about Belene NPP, would be to sell the Russian-made nuclear reactor, Premier Boyko Borissov said for journalists. He gave an example about the geopolitical situation, saying that at present there exists a cold war much tougher than the one before. “If we find where to sell it, together with the Russian side, that would be the best solution”, the Prime Minister said. In his words, it is important to bring back to normal the relations between the National Electric Company (NEC) and the Russian Rossatom; to level out the tone of speaking and to carry out pragmatic talks with the Russian side, in order to attain the maximum effect.
