No doubt, independent Kazakhstan has a full right to enter in any alliance and sign any treaties with foreign companies, including Westinghouse. Moscow will have to think over the way of convincing Astana not to refuse from nuclear cooperation with Russia.
Profitable economic relations are the cornerstone of the Kazakh-Russian cooperation. Supplying uranium for Russian nuclear power plants, Kazakh nuclear specialists have a right to hope to receive from us something more than money in return. One of such ways of a fair exchange was mentioned in the first part of the article - transfer of Russian reactor technologies PWR-300 to Kazakhstan.
One more important direction of cooperation where Russia can be of a great help for its Central Asian neighbors is personnel training for nuclear energy sector.
