Rosatom is ready to apply its technologies and expertise to a project to decontaminate the site of the former Nairit chemical plant in Armenia.

This was reported to TASS by Rosatom’s subsidiary, the Federal Environmental Operator.

“Rosatom has all the technologies and expertise needed to address the most complex environmental disasters and is ready to apply them to a wide range of challenges, including a project to ensure the safety of the site of the former Nairit chemical plant,” the company said.

Rosatom’s potential involvement in addressing the problems at the former Nairit chemical plant has been under discussion since 2022.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
