    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan chaired Wednesday
    a meeting of RA National Security Council, which approved construction
    of a new power-generating unit in the republic, the RA leader's press
    office reported.

    Armenian Minister of Energy and Natural Resources stressed the
    importance of the measure in the long-term outlook and said the
    construction will estimate $4-5 billion. The exact figure will be
    known after all necessary researches are completed.

    Armenia is planning to build a new power-generating unit with 1000
    megawatt capacity. WorleyParsons international consortium won the
    construction tender on May 12.

    To attract foreign capital, the Armenian parliament cancelled the
    state monopoly of new nuclear units. Russia, U.S. and France have
    already shown interest in the project.
