His comments came amid planned high-level talks between the prime Ministers of both countries.
Speaking to RIA Novosti, Likhachev expressed optimism about potential joint efforts in nuclear power development:
Based on the context of the discussions today at the meeting of the Heads of Government of our countries, we can conclude that we are moving towards joint decisions...We are already actively working and cooperating.
