Armenia
The leaders of the National Democratic Party and the Freedom Party
touched upon the construction of a new nuclear plant in Armenia
on September 4 at the Hayeli Club. Shavarsh Kocharyan says it is
important to speed up the construction. In addition, Armenia should
avoid becoming a marionette for some great power, and to hold a free
and transparent tender. According to Shavarsh Kocharyan, this is the
only way of ensuring energy independence and security in the country.
Hrant Bagratyan spoke as a prime minister who had re-operated the
old nuclear plant thanks to which Armenia is the only country in the
region which has nuclear technology. Hrant Bagratyan also said that the
new nuclear plant had been discussed earlier in 1996 with Russia and
France. "In this connection, we attended to the problem of locating
nuclear wastes in the territory of the nuclear plant. In 1996 this
issue was discussed during the meeting of Ter-Petrosyan and Chirac,"
Hrant Bagratyan says, who wonders why the construction of the nuclear
plant is delayed for ten years.
