Serbia must build a large nuclear power plant by 2041 to ensure energy security and prepare for growing electricity consumption.
According to the Balkan bureau of Report, this was announced by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić on Serbian Radio and Television.
He said he discussed the development of nuclear energy with French President Emmanuel Macron.
