US warns Russia not to touch American nuclear technology at Ukrainian nuclear plant

Goods, software, and technology are subject to US export controls

Newsroom April 20 01:35

The US has sensitive nuclear technology at a nuclear power plant inside Ukraine and is warning Russia not to touch it, according to a letter the US Department of Energy sent to Russia’s state-owned nuclear energy firm Rosatom last month.

In the letter, which was reviewed by CNN and is dated March 17, 2023, the director of the Energy Department’s Office of Nonproliferation Policy, Andrea Ferkile, tells Rosatom’s director general that the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Enerhodar “contains US-origin nuclear technical data that is export-controlled by the United States Government.”

Goods, software, and technology are subject to US export controls when it is possible for them to be used in a way that undermines US national security interests.
