Russia’s Vnesheconombank starts transferring Belarusian nuclear station loan
In line with the credit agreement on financing the construction of the Belarusian nuclear power plant the Russian bank is to open an eight-year credit line as large as $500 million for covering the Belarusian part of the expenses involved in the project. The terms of the loan are optimal for both sides. The interest rates correspond to those on the global market. They are based on interest rates available in Vnesheconombank’s loans and on Belarus’ credit rating.

Belarusian participation in Belarusian nuclear station project to stay high
“The Belarusian nuclear power plant is being built in tight cooperation with Belarus. We choose every contractor via a tender and always take into account the opinion of the Belarusian customer. About 80% of the ongoing construction operations are fulfilled by Belarusian construction companies. It is a very high figure for a country that is building its first nuclear power plant. When equipment deliveries start, naturally the percentage will drop. But Rosatom carefully studies information regarding capabilities of Belarusian companies in order to let them take part in the project. We will try to make the share of Belarusian companies as large as possible,” stressed Kirill Komarov.
