KIEV, June 9 - Ukraine and Russia on Wednesday signed an agreement to jointly build two nuclear power reactors at the Khmelnytskiy Nuclear Power Plant. The value of the deal was not disclosed.

The agreement was signed in Kiev by Yuriy Boyko, the energy and fuel minister, and Sergei Kiriyenko, the general director of Rosatom, the Russian state nuclear power corporation.
Kiriyenko and Boyko met Prime Ministefr Mykola Azarov to outline joint future projects.
