We have no doubt that the 2023 delivery program will also be completed without delay, the Russian nuclear company, which supplies fuel for the Kozloduy NPP, wrote in a letter to Energy Minister Rosen Hristov, as quoted by BTA.

The minister explained that supplies from the Russian company could be suspended due to difficulties caused by Russia's war in Ukraine.
