IAEA pledges to help Vietnam develop nuclear power

Nuclear energy is for not only developed countries but also developing countries like Vietnam which can implement and apply nuclear energy in its economic development, said IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano.

Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Amano made the statement to Deputy Prime Minister Vu Van Ninh at a reception in Hanoi on October 3.

Amano spoke highly of Vietnam’s efforts to apply nuclear energy to socio-economic development and said he believes that Vietnam will be successful in the field soon. He said he hoped the cooperation between IAEA and Vietnam will be further accelerated and more effective.

Deputy PM Ninh said Vietnam’s fast economic development has generated a growing demand for energy and nuclear energy. Vietnam pledges to apply nuclear energy to its socio-economic development for peaceful purposes, he said.

He hoped that IAEA will continue assisting Vietnam to finalize a law on ensuring nuclear energy safety, building nuclear energy infrastructure, completing management apparatus in the field and sharing experience in applying nuclear energy to socio-economic development.
