LIANYUNGANG (China), November 26 (RIA Novosti, Alexei Yefimov) - China expects Russia to build the third and fourth energy units of the Tianwan nuclear power station.

"We would like to see Russia continue its participation [in the project]," Wang Jianhua, the first secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Lianyungang city committee, said.

He stressed that Russian technology used in building the first two power units had proven excellent.

"The decision on building units 3 and 4 will be made by the central authorities of course," Wang Jianhua added.

The first unit is to go online in early 2006, while the second will not become operational until some time between 2006 and 2010, China's 11th five-year plan period.
