ARMENIA JOINS AGREEMENT ON INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR URANIUM ENRICHMENT
Lragir, Armenia
Feb 6 2008
Armenia will join the agreement on establishment of an international
center for uranium enrichment in the city of Angarsk, Russia. "I think
the discourse on the participation of Armenia in the final interstate
agreement on the international center for uranium enrichment is highly
important," said the Russian Prime Minister Victor Zubkov in today’s
news conference in Yerevan.
"This is an important agreement which creates conditions for Armenia
to joint the anti-proliferation regime," said the general manager of
the Rosatom State Corporation Sergey Kirienko.
The international center for uranium enrichment was set up by Russia
and Kazakhstan in May 2007 at the Russian city of Angarsk, Irkutsk.
