Decision trail

Decision date 25/07/2025 · Reference ↗

ITER is an international collaboration based in the south of France, with Europe contributing almost half of the cost, with the rest shared equally by China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Russian Federation and the United States. In May, three members of the centre-right European People’s Party asked what the European Commission planned to do to end Russia’s participation in ITER, noting that the bloc’s recent plan to end its dependence on Russia for nuclear energy (as well as fossil fuels) “is silent on fusion energy.” Moscow cannot be excluded from Europe’s flagship fusion project, EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jorgensen confirmed in response to concerns raised by members of the European Parliament.
