Russia on Monday expressed its displeasure over the civil nuclear liability law that seeks to cover Koodankulam Nuclear Power Plant (KKNPP) 3 and 4 and problems faced by its telecom company Sistema saying that the rules of the game should not be changed mid-way.
Unit 1 of KKNPP is due to be commissioned soon, while Unit 2 is at an advanced stage and will be commissioned next year. Addressing a joint press conference after co-chairing the Indo-Russian Inter-Governmental Commission meeting on Trade, Economic, Scientific, Technological and Cultural Cooperation (IRIGC-TEC), external affairs minister S.M. Krishna and Russian deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin resolved to meet the desired bilateral trade target of `20 billion by 2015.
