MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia and Mali have signed a memorandum on the development of peaceful nuclear infrastructure in the West African country, Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom said on Wednesday.
The countries are also discussing the prospects of building low-power nuclear power plants in Mali, Rosatom added.
In addition, the two sides have discussed lithium mining and solar energy projects, Rosatom said.

Mali considers a strategic partnership with Russia to be important both in the field of solar and nuclear energy, Malian Foreign Minister Abdoulaye Diop earlier told Sputnik.
A nuclear power plant can ensure self-sustaining energy production and meet the needs of the Malian economy and the Malian population in the medium term, the minister added.
