    Article | April 29, 2012 - 8:22pm

    Visiting International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General
    Yukiya Amano was recently welcomed by Armenia's Foreign Affairs
    Minister Edward Nalbandian, Armenia Liberty.org reported.

    In the course of talks, Nalbandian stressed that Armenia stress the
    need to develop its ties and co-operation with the IAEA, also
    considering this as the most important component of Armenia's energy
    and nuclear safety.

    He also recalled President Serzh Sargsyan's participation in the
    Nuclear Safety Summit, which was held in Seoul in March. For his part,
    Amano said that IAEA attach importance to co-operation with Armenia
    which he expects to yield fruitful results. The interlocutors
    discussed the Armenia-IAEA co-operation and nuclear safety matters. In
    this context, Nalbandian noted that Armenia, as a country with nuclear
    technology, has joined several international documents which regulate
    this area.

    The head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog inspected the nuclear
    plant at Metsamor and discussed with Armenian leaders their plans to
    delay its decommissioning.
