The rumors about possible creation of a dirty bomb in Armenia are greatly exaggerated and groundless, Director General of the Armenian NPP CJSC Movses Vardanyan told reporters at Atom Expo 2016 exhibition in Moscow on May 30.
He said that the nuclear waste of the Armenian NPP is reliably stored at the four containers of the nuclear waste and can remain for 50 years. "All talks about possible creation of a nuclear bomb in Armenia have nothing to do with the reality," he said.
Earlier, Ex-Prime Minister of Armenia Hrant Bagratyan spoke of the possibility of creation of a nuclear bomb. This sparked a public outcry.
