/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The United States assists in working out a long-term
energy strategy in Armenia, U.S. Ambassador John Evans stated on June
30. `The US understands that energy security is a priority to
Armenia,' the American diplomat noted. He affirmed that Washington
perceives the importance of the use of alternative energy sources and
diversification of energy supply, and knows that in this context one
of the options under consideration is the building of a new atomic
power plant. Evans announced that the project of building a new atomic
plant involves participation of international donors, which depends on
the possibility to perceive fully the strategy of Armenia in the
sphere of energy and closing of the old atomic power plant. John Evans
suggested that Armenia discuss how the settlement of complicated
problems with Azerbaijan will affect diversification of energy supply
and finding new markets for generated electricity, reports lragir.am.
