IGDIR - A delegation from the Turkish Atomic Energy Agency (TAEK)
visited Turkey-Armenia border.
The delegation headed by Ozer Ozerdem, the chief advisor to the TAEK
Chairman, came to northeastern Alican Border Gate which is very close
to the Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant in Armenia and conducted radiation
calculation there and took soil and plant samples.
Ozerdem said that they would examine those samples to determine
whether there was any leak from the power plant.
Meanwhile, Mehmet Yilmaz, the deputy governor of northeastern province
of Igdir, said that residents were worried about ''radiation leak''
from the Metsamor which was only 20 kilometers from the city-center.
