Russia Announces Plans to Build Nuclear Plant for Venezuela. By Andrew E. Kramer, NYTimes, 10/16/10. “President Dmitri A. Medvedev said Friday that Russia planned to build the first nuclear power plant in Venezuela, and that the United States should not object because Russia’s intentions were ‘absolutely pure and open.’ The deal was announced during a state visit to Moscow by Venezuela’s president, Hugo Chávez, and is in keeping with a push by Russian businesses to expand sales of reactors and nuclear fuel around the world. Just in August, Russia completed work on Iran’s first nuclear power plant.”
