🇺🇸🇦🇲 U.S. to invest $9 billion in Armenia’s nuclear energy — Pashinyan and Vance sign agreement Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and U.S. Vice President James D. Vance today signed a joint statement announcing the conclusion of negotiations on a cooperation agreement in the field of peaceful nuclear energy (123 Agreement for Peaceful Nuclear Cooperation). “This agreement will help diversify Armenia’s energy resources and attract safe and innovative technologies,” Pashinyan added. Vice President Vance stated that under the agreement, the U.S. will provide small modular reactors (SMRs) to Armenia, with a total value of $9 billion: initially $5 billion for equipment, followed by $4 billion for fuel supply and long-term reactor maintenance contracts. “These are small modular reactors that will be delivered here. The U.S. very rarely transfers its technologies to other countries with this level of confidence,” the Vice President said. According to him, this mutually beneficial cooperation “will promote energy stability and security” and create numerous jobs. Earlier, in a meeting with Pashinyan with an extended delegation, Vance said that at this stage, Armenia could become an important pillar for the region’s economic development. He added that this cooperation would support and strengthen peace agreements and could bring prosperity to the peoples of both Armenia and the United States. #Armenia #Pashinyan #Vance #USA #SouthCaucasus #TRIPP #Crissroads_of_Peace
