MOSCOW, April 14 - The highly enriched uranium (HEU) that Ukraine has decided to get rid of will be brought to Russia, said Alexei Lebedev, general director of the International Uranium Enrichment Center.

The material will be placed in containers and taken to Russia apparently by rail. If it is fresh fuel, it will be taken to the facility in Elektrostal, if it has been exposed, then to the Mayak facility in Chelyabinsk, he said in a Tuesday interview with Russia 24 channel.
