La Turquie demande l'arrêt de la centrale arménienne de
Metsamor
La centrale nucléaire de Metsamor en Arménie est obsolète et doit être arrêtée en urgence selon le
ministre turc de l'énergie Taner Yıldız qui a précisé que la Turquie avait lancé un appel en ce sens à
l'Agence Internationale à l’Énergie Atomique.
"La centrale nucléaire qui a été raccordée en 1980, a une durée de vie de 30 ans. Cette
centrale est en fin de vie et doit être arrêtée immédiatement à déclaré Yidiz.
Il a souligné que la centrale est à moins de 16 km de la frontière turque.
La Turquie elle-même projette un avenir nucléaire pour répondre à la flambée de sa demande
énergétique, défiant les risques de survenue de problèmes de sécurité dénoncés par des groupes
autochtones.
La centrale nucléaire de Metsamor produit 40 % de l'électricité arménienne, mais la Turquie et le
l'Azerbaijan s'opposent à son existence parce, selon eux, elle ne respecte pas les normes de sécurité
internationales...

ENERGY > Turkey wants nuclear plant in
Armenia to be shut down
ANKARA – Anadolu Agency
Minister Yıldız said Turkey had sent an official appeal to the International Atomic Energy Agency
concerning the shutdown of the plant.
—> The Metsamor nuclear power plant in Armenia is outdated and should be urgently closed down,
Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yıldız has said, re-voicing concerns about the safety of the plant.
Speaking with reporters during a visit to the Turkish province of Iğdır near Turkey’s eastern border on
March 21, Yıldız said Turkey had sent an official appeal to the International Atomic Energy Agency
concerning the shutdown of the plant.
“The nuclear plant, which was put online in 1980, has had a lifespan of 30 years. This plant has
expired and should be immediately closed,” Yıldız said.
He stressed Metsamor is just 16 kms away from Turkey’s border, and it was necessary to bring the
issue to international attention and obtain support for the plant’s closure.
Turkey itself is also building up its energy future on nuclear power to reduce its soaring energy needs,
defying safety risk concerns voiced by a number of groups at home.
The Metsamor nuclear power plant produces about 40 percent of Armenia’s electricity, but Turkey
and Azerbaijan object to its existence as they believe it does not meet international safety standards.
