YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 22, NOYAN TAPAN. Opening of 50th jubilee conference
of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) took place on September
18 in Vienna. Austrian President Heinz Fischer made a greeting speech
at the opening ceremony.

The Armenian delegation was led by Deputy Foreign Minister Arman
Kirakosian. The agency’s future programs aimed at safe use of nuclear
energy and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons were discussed at
the conference.

In his speech the head of the Armenian delegation said that Armenia is
loyal to its initiatives and is for exclusively peaceful use of nuclear
energy. The Armenian government seriously discusses the prospect of
retaining its membership to the international nuclear community and
parallelly with closing the Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant studies the
possibility of building a new nuclear power plant.

It was also mentioned that Armenia actively cooperates with U.S. and
a number of countries in the sphere of nuclear energy.

As Noyan Tapan was informed from RA Foreign Ministry Press and
Information Department, Arman Kirakosian in his speech expressed
gratitude to the agency and all countries with which Armenia has been
cooperating efficiently since relaunching the Metsamor Nuclear Power
Plant in 1995.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
