Russia seeks deeper trade and nuclear power ties to Myanmar

Russia told Myanmar’s leader and military junta chief Min Aung Hlaing on Tuesday that Moscow saw good prospects for expanding cooperation in a range of areas including agriculture and nuclear energy.

“Despite the illegitimate sanctions against Russia and Myanmar, our trade and economic cooperation is developing successfully, and mutual trade is growing,” Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said.
