Nuclear icebreakers can be transferred to Rosatom
Russian nuclear icebreakers’ fleet can be transferred to the new state corporation “Rosatom”.
It was stated at the Russian Parliament, by the head of the Russian Nuclear Agency Sergey Kirienko. “We can loose the whole ice-breakers’ fleet in the nearest 7-10 years” Kirienko said.
