Belarusian NPP

Participants of the picket against Astravets NPP construction were detained yesterday near Frunzenskaya metro station. There were many foreign citizens there.

It will happen when they manage to prove that the project of the nuclear power plant does not correspond to the international safety regulations.

Today's round-table will be dedicated to analysis of the situation with the NPP, by MPs and experts, politicians and activists from Lithuania and Belarus.

The smoke disappeared after the fire prevention measures organized by employees of the NPP.

The reason for it could be the fact that the cover of the third reactor was damaged and radiation was emitted with vapour.

There is no graphite and there is nothing to burn. There has been no explosion in the reactor of Fukushima 1 and no radiation leak is expected.

One more explosion is reported to have occurred in the third power unit of Fukushima 1, Japan.

Alexksey Yablokov, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, has expressed the opinion.

Belarus is asking Russia to allocate a 25-year credit for the construction of Astravets nuclear power station.
