Kestutis Dauksys, the chairman of the Lithuanian parliament's Energy Commission, expects to see proposals on the future of the Visaginas project next week. He says that one of the possible options is to continue to project, but adds that „certain contractual corrections“ will need to be negotiated with the strategic investor, Hitachi, before this can happen.
