During a meeting with International Atomic Energy Agency
representatives Azeri President Ilham Alyev stated that nuclear safety
and security are very important for the world as well as for
Azerbaijan. According to the Aliyev, the Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant
in Armenia must be closed down. The Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant was
built in during the 1970's and there are concerns about its safety
standards, as well as the fact that Armenia lies in an area of
considerable seismic activity. Armenia has recently signed an
agreement with Russia to construct a new nuclear power station in
Armenia. The construction is scheduled to take place in 2014-2015.
