LIVE: Russia Expands Nuclear Footprint in Africa With Deals With Mali Junta | Firstpost Africa
Welcome to Firstpost Africa with Alyson Le Grange. We are live from Durban, South Africa.
Mali's ruling military junta and Russia's state nuclear company Rosatom signed three cooperation deals. The two sides discussed projects including a Russian-designed low-power nuclear power plant, Rosatom said on Wednesday. Rosatom did not give details about the proposed low-power nuclear power plant that could be built in Mali. Rosatom has been seeking to drum up business by signing cooperation agreements with countries across the continent. It is already building a nuclear power plant in Egypt, while it has signed nuclear cooperation deals with Burkina Faso and Algeria. Russia has strengthened ties with juntas in West Africa's Sahel region that have turned away from traditional Western allies.
