During the thematic discussion on nuclear weapons held by the First Committee of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, the Armenian delegation reaffirmed Armenia’s support for the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and emphasized the importance of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty entering into force as soon as possible.
The delegation also underscored Armenia’s commitment to the peaceful use of nuclear energy and to close cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency—including in the context of extending the operational lifespan of the Armenian Nuclear Power Plant and ensuring a safe and responsible transition to a new nuclear power plant.
