Russia Resumes Talks With Other Countries To Supply Rocket Engines - NPO Energomash

MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 19th January, 2021) NPO Energomash, a subsidiary of Russian state space corporation Roscosmos, has resumed talks with foreign clients, interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic, on the supply of rocket engines abroad or joint work to build engines, the enterprise's Director General Igor Arbuzov told Sputnik.

"Unfortunately, the negotiation process has slowed down due to the pandemic. We have not gone far from the state of talks that was at the beginning of 2020. I would not like to name specific countries. But now we are gradually returning to the negotiation process, and all the partners who were in talks confirm their intentions to develop cooperation," Arbuzov said.

"I think that in 2021 we will come to specific decisions," he said.

Earlier reports said China, India, Argentina, Brazil and South Korea were interested in cooperation with Russia in the creation of rocket engines, including those working on new types of fuel.
