The Iranian official made the announcement during his address to the second specialized meeting held on the sidelines of the World Youth Festival 2024 that took place on March 1-7 in the Russian resort city of Sochi, said an IRNA report on Saturday.
Karimi-Sabet explained that Iran is working on megascience projects with the final aim of achieving sustainable development, as such projects leave great impact on different aspects of national economy while helping boost international cooperation, among other issues.
In line with this policy, he said, Iran is cooperating in the project to develop Russia’s PIK research reactor, adding that the project can also serve as a starting point for Tehran-Moscow cooperation on megascience, considering Iran’s long-running activity in nuclear medicine as well as the country’s comprehensive plan for using nuclear technology in health, food security, energy and the environment, as well as the capabilities at the PIK complex.
