Japan cancels $22 billion Turkish nuclear power project

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and its partners have pulled out of the project after construction costs rose to 5 trillion yen ($44 billion), about double original projections, Nikkei Asia Review reported on Tuesday, citing sources it didn’t identify.
