This is a fucking joke. I wish media wouldn't take it seriously.

I recently read this about their "new" spacestation:

The latest concept for the ROS reflects Roscosmos' changing situation in recent years, owing to sanctions and the termination of international cooperation following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. According to Orlov's announcement, Russia will separate its modules from the ISS once the program is completed in 2030, forming the core of the ROS, with other modules to follow.

In other words, they're just decoupling & rearranging the modules & renaming the result.

Feel free to extrapolate from that how realistic a Russian nuclear plant on the moon is.
