European politicians should look to their Asian counterparts when deciding whether to build nuclear power plants, Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom CEO Alexey Likhachev said on Friday.
"This is one of those cases where you can advise European countries to follow the example of Asian countries," he said at the World Atomic Days international business forum in Antalya.
Likhachev said the Europeans could take a cue from Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, who called a referendum on building a nuclear power plant in the country. According to Likhachev, two-thirds of Kazakhstanis voted in favor of the project.
Likhachev said he did not know how to convince European politicians of the persistent global demand for nuclear energy and Russia's willingness to promote inclusive, equal-footed cooperation on nuclear technology.
