Armenia Seeks the Best Option: Pashinyan Confirms Negotiations on New Nuclear Power Plant

Negotiations are underway with several partners at once

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated that Armenia is negotiating the construction of a new nuclear power plant with several partners at once, including Russia. According to him, Yerevan is open to various proposals and intends to choose the most advantageous option.

The issue was discussed, among other things, at a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Pashinyan noted that energy cooperation between the countries remains an important area, while Armenia is simultaneously developing other segments, including solar generation and modern technologies.

Previously, the authorities had already decided on the format of the future station — it is a modular nuclear power plant. The specific project and technology supplier are planned to be selected during 2026 or in early 2027.
