KIEV, June 30 – Ukraine needs to design a balanced strategy to treat spent nuclear fuel, the State Inspectorate for Nuclear Regulation said.
"The Council Directive 2011/70/Euratom [being implemented by Ukraine] directly establishes an obligation of the EU countries to have a strategy for treating spent fuel and radioactive waste secured financially. The approach is acknowledged by the civilized world and helps to avoid imposing undue burdens on future generations," the regulator said.
