At the signing ceremony, President Zelenskiy hailed “a deepening of the diversification of nuclear fuel supplies for our state-owned Energoatom.” Patrick Fragman, President and CEO of Westinghouse, now a Canadian company, said: “With this major agreement, we extend further our commitment to Ukraine’s energy security and focus on further improving the operational excellence of its nuclear fleet.” In addition, the parties signed a memorandum of understanding that envisages production of Westinghouse fuel components by Atomenergomash, an Energoatom unit.
