South Korean President Park Geun-hye offered Wednesday to help Prague complete construction of some new units at a Czech nuclear power plant, Czech President Milos Zeman's press secretary confirmed Wednesday.
Park met with her Czech counterpart on Wednesday, as part of a four-day official visit to the republic.
According to the Ceske Noviny newspaper, Park offered the assistance of Korean firms in the completion of new units at the local nuclear power plant, as well as the supply of helicopters for the Czech Air Force. In turn, the Czech side proposed that the two countries cooperate in the development of new technologies, particularly in the field of nanotechnology.
"Exactly these issues of economic cooperation, including the energy sector, will dominate within the framework of the official visit of the Korean president," presidential press secretary Jiri Ovcacek told reporters.
The Czech Republic is heavily reliant on nuclear energy for its energy needs. As part of a governmental plan to increase nuclear power production, the Czech government wants to build one more reactor at the Temelin nuclear plant and another at the Dukovany plant, with the option of building another reactor at each site.
