Russia to request maximum observance of  ceasefire from all parties  when evacuating Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant personnel - Likhachev

ArmInfo. Russia will request maximum observance of the ceasefire from all parties, including Israel and the United States, during the evacuation of personnel from the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant. Rosatom Director General Alexei Likhachev told reporters on the sidelines of the International Transport and Logistics Forum, as reported by Interfax.

The evacuation is being carried out through Armenian territory.  "Naturally, the travel routes will be shared with the competent  authorities in Israel and the United States through all available  channels. We will request full compliance with the ceasefire during  the movement of the convoys. I would like to express my thanks once  more  to the government of Iran, our partners-the Iranian nuclear  scientists-and to the government of Armenia for the previous  evacuations, as we facilitated this work across the Iranian- Armenian  border," the head of Rosatom said.

Likhachev did not provide a specific date for the next wave of  evacuations. "Every hour counts. I don't want to give specific dates  right now. Much depends on the specific military and political  situation in the region. Any events could either delay or advance  this evacuation. But I repeat, everything is measured in hours, not  days," Likhachev emphasized.
