Trade relations between Russia and Indonesia are said to be developing well. Last year, bilateral trade relations grew 40% and rose more than 65% in the first five months of this year. This trade relationship will continue to be improved. Then, Putin began to mention cooperation for nuclear development in Indonesia.
“Many of our companies, including energy companies, operate in Indonesia. There is an interest in developing the national nuclear power industry,” said Putin.
As is known, Russia is one of the nuclear-owning countries. However, nuclear itself can not only be used for weapons but for other purposes outside the military. Returning to Putin, he stated that his country has the reliability to work on nuclear. He mentioned the name of his state company engaged in nuclear technology.
“With its unique experience, competence and unrivaled technology, Rosatom State Corporation is willing to take part in joint projects,” Putin said.
“Including projects related to the use of non-energy nuclear technology, for example, in the fields of medicine and agriculture,” he added.
