4 February 2009
ASSOCIATED PRESS (PARIS) - French nuclear giant, Areva, signed a preliminary deal to provide India with up to six new-generation reactors, a move hailed in India as ending its nuclear isolation and transforming the country into "a responsible nuclear state." The signed deal with Indian electric utility, Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd. paves the way for technical cooperation on at least two and as many as six of Areva's Evolutionary Power Reactors, at the Jaitapur site in the western state of Maharashtra. This deal marks the start of a wide-ranging future collaboration on nuclear issues between the two countries.
