/PanARMENIAN.Net/ During a meeting with European Union Council
Secretary General and High Representative for the EU's Common Foreign
and Security Policy Javier Solana in Brussels, Prime Minister of
Armenia Serzh Sargsyan spoke of the possibility of closing the Armenian
NPP by the year 2016. He advised that the government approved a
timetable for NPP decommissioning which is quite a costly undertaking.
PM Sargsyan informed that the RA government has established and partly
financed a special fund to that effect. Nevertheless, the task seems
to be beyond our country's possibilities and Armenia will need the
European Union's support.
Mr Solana promised to think about the ways of assistance. The EU
Council Secretary General said that after the presidential elections,
the cooperation between the European Union and the Republic of Armenia
will focus upon the implementation of EU-Armenia action plan under
the European Neighborhood Policy, as well as other key areas high on
the bilateral agenda, the RA government's press office reported.
