Prime Minister Does Not Rule Out Choosing Russian Model for Modular Nuclear Power Plant

Nikol Pashinyan Discusses Possible Models for Modular Nuclear Power Plant

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has not ruled out that in the case of a modular nuclear power plant, the Russian model may be chosen from several options presented.

"We have stated that we do not consider any model impossible; we need the best offer, and we are looking for the best offer," Pashinyan told reporters after a government meeting.

According to him, the Armenian side has never said that the Russian proposal could be the best.

"But there are several factors: price, buyback period, construction period, financing schemes, etc. It is time to make a decision, but we are also working to extend the term of the existing nuclear power plant once again.

This issue should be taken out of the political context," Pashinyan said.
