    ARMENIA JOINS DEAL ON INTERNATIONAL URANIUM CENTER IN RUSSIA

    RIA Novosti, Russia
    February 6, 2008

    YEREVAN, February 6 (RIA Novosti) - Armenia signed an agreement to
    join an international uranium enrichment center in Russia on Wednesday
    during the Russian prime minister's visit to the Caucasus state.

    "This is an important document that will create conditions for
    Armenia's joining the nuclear non-proliferation regime," Russian
    nuclear chief Sergei Kiriyenko told reporters after talks between
    prime ministers Viktor Zubkov and Serzh Sarkisyan.

    The center, part of Moscow's non-proliferation initiative to create
    a network of enrichment centers under the UN nuclear watchdog's
    supervision, will be based at a chemicals plant in Angarsk, Siberia.

    The center will also be responsible for the disposal of nuclear waste.
