As part of their bilateral discussions, Presidents Putin and Erdogan announced plans for Russia to build a second nuclear plant in the country, in the Turkish Black Sea city of Sinop.
“I especially want to mention the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant,” Erdogan said. “As you know, its construction is underway. I would like to highlight the second step in this area: in Türkiye, in the city of Sinop, we discussed the construction of a second nuclear power plant with my dear friend. With this step, Türkiye will undoubtedly break new ground.”
