Few more steps towards actually signing the Dabaa contracts?

Few more steps towards actually signing the Dabaa contracts? Russia’s Rosatom has reportedly invited Egyptian engineering and consulting firms to begin presenting their offers to work on the Dabaa nuclear power plant, Al Borsa reports. Rosatom is planning on signing contracts with Egyptian consultancy firms and contractors to get the ball rolling as soon as the final contracts are signed, said Hussein Sabbour, whose firm Sabbour Consulting was one of the companies invited to take part. The move could signal that the December deadline might actually be legit. The story follows a press conference in Egypt held by Rosatom to extol the economic benefits and safety standards of the Dabaa plant. Which makes this news about a cloud of radioactive pollution nearly 1,000 times normal levels hitting Europe coming from a nuclear plant Russia or Kazakhstan all the more worrying.
