/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The European Union doesn’t finance projects
implemented by two states. Armenia intends to build a new NPP jointly
with Russia. That is why the EU will not finance the construction,"
European Commissioner for External Relations and European Neighborhood
Policy Benita Ferrero-Waldner told a news conference in Yerevan.
"The Metsamor NPP is outdated and needs to be closed.
We have allocated 30 million euro to ensure the plant’s security. But
it must be closed," she said.
