The second atomic power plant planned to be built in Armenia should
be carried in compliance with the Espoo Convention, an international
environmental agreement assessing the impact on the environment,
the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry has announced via its official
representative, Elman Abdullayev, 1news.az reports.
"With regard to plans on building a second nuclear power plant,
Armenia must act in a spirit of transparency, as the common goal of
all countries of the South Caucasus is the environmental security of
the region" - said Abdullayev.
During the meeting between Armenian President Serzh Sagsyana and
Italian President Giorgio Napolitano last week, the leaders of both
countries defined promising areas of future cooperation. Alternative
and nuclear energy were named as one of the most prospective directions
