France in advanced talks to sell nuclear reactors to Saudi Arabia

[Saif al-Arab]

French ambassador must be an Arab or somewhere from south, right? You don't have to respond

You never know. He should take an DNA test. Anyway his Arabic is amazing. Almost zero traces of any accent. I was pleasantly surprised. I doubt that many ambassadors to France speak French in such a fashion as he spoke Arabic. He even had a slight Najdi accent. Very impressive indeed.

Actually, it was Arabian article, translated to Russian. There is very popular site Inosmi, where dozens of interesting foreign articles are translated every day.

Yes. There are also some good historic ties between Arabian Orthodox and Russian Orthodox Churches for centuries.

Thank you. I will read it.

Of course maybe 100's of newspapers have talked about this visit from KSA and many Arab nations but this should suffice.

Yes, I know about the Arabian Orthodox Churches (the oldest ones in the world) and their closeness to the Russian Orthodox Church. I have a few Christian Arab friends and they tend to be big Russian fanboys. You should try to cultivate stronger ties with them.

Saudi-Russian Summit Next Thursday
TAHA ABED ALWAHED

Moscow- The Kremlin said it hopes that the upcoming visit of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud to Moscow next week will give a new powerful impetus to the development of bilateral relations with Riyadh which is the leader of the Arab world.

“Russia is interested in maintaining a dialogue, including in the framework of the discussion of the situation in the Middle East and Syria,” the press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov said on Friday.

King Salman is expected to arrive in Moscow next Wednesday on an official visit to Russia.

A summit between the Saudi King and Russian President Vladimir Putin will be held on Thursday to discuss enhancing and developing bilateral relations, and would also tackle a number of regional and international issues. The visit will last until Sunday.

“We hope that this visit will give a new powerful impetus to the development of bilateral relations, because the potential of our relations is much richer than the de facto situation, and we want to develop our dialogue in every possible way,” Peskov said.

Saudi King’s official visit will also witness the signing of Russia of a number of memorandums and agreements with 6 Saudi governmental bodies.

Two Saudi companies will also sign a number of deals with four Russian companies. The visit will also see the delivery of a number of investment permits.

Asked whether the visit of King Salman constitutes a sign of the rapprochement of positions between Moscow and Riyadh, particularly concerning the Syrian crisis, Peskov said: “Saudi Arabia is a state that plays an important role in Arab and inter-Arab affairs. It is the leader of the Arab world.”

He added that Russia is undoubtedly interested to keep its dialogue with the Kingdom.

Some anonymous official from KSA said 25 agreements will be signed.. (ready to be signed..)

So what happened to this "advanced talks with France?"

Allez la France donne nous un reacteur!

S'ils donnent quelque chose, il faut qu'ils donnent 4 reacteurs..This might happen, but through some analysis they will be the last ones after Russia, South Korea and China.. and even then they can't really compete with the Build-Run-Operate motto of the Russian agencies.. or the quickness of SK..

No, the right order is rather this one : China/France, Russia, South Korea - No enriching uranium - and Japan - No enriching uranium -.

France and China are already supplying nuclear power plants for the international market :

China to build nuclear reactor in Essex after Hinkley deal approved (15 September 2016)

Generic Design Assessment process to begin for UK HPR1000 nuclear technology (EDF - 10 Jan 2017)

China confident to get new UK nuclear power plant approval after Hinkley (Xinhua, 2017-08-26)


Everything will be played on “enriching uranium (Like this - old link -)”.

Which will offer the best guarantees for the provision of complete range from A to Z
- Construction, training, full technological transfer -?
