Azerbaijan, Baku, Sept. 23 / Trend E. Ismayilov /
It is too early to use nuclear power in Azerbaijan, because the country has oil and gas reserves, Industry and Energy Minister, Natig Aliyev, said on Sept.23.
"It is necessary to work in this direction [use atomic energy], conduct research and to move forward. But to use it in Azerbaijan is still too early," Aliyev said.
According to the minister, 100-percent security is impossible in the nuclear energy. The development of this industry in the country requires purchasing necessary equipment from abroad, installing and servicing this equipment, which in turn will lead to the country's dependence on other states
