Greetings to participants in the meeting of research and engineering councils of the Nuclear Weapons Complex of ROSATOM and RFNC-VNIIEF

November 23, 2010

Dmitry Medvedev sent his greetings to participants in the meeting of research and engineering councils of the Nuclear Weapons Complex of ROSATOM and Russian Federal Nuclear Centre — The All-Russian Research Institute of Experimental Physics (RFNC-VNIIEF). The anniversary meeting took place in Sarov, Nizhny Novgorod Region.

The message reads, in part:

“This is one of Russia’s leading nuclear centres, where the hydrogen bomb was created 55 years ago. That became a hugely important event for our defence industry, a symbol of our scientists’ success in the development of new fields of knowledge.

I hope that the current generation of the nuclear complex’ staff will preserve the traditions of their predecessors, make a significant contribution to Russia’s defence capability and boost its reputation as a leading nation of science.”
