Armenia Signs Civil Nuclear Cooperation Agreement with US

Armenia has signed a civil nuclear cooperation agreement with the United States, marking a significant shift towards reducing its reliance on Russian energy. The deal aims to replace Armenia's aging Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant with new reactors, enhancing the country's energy security and economic prospects.

The signing of the agreement reflects broader trends in the Caucasus region, where nations are seeking to diversify their energy imports and reduce dependence on any one supplier.
