Outflow of experts can cause a threat
"We are at a rather large distance from Japan and even if those elements reach Armenia, they will not be dangerous," says professor of the Nuclear Physics Department at Yerevan State University Alita Danagulyan.
The activities implemented at the nuclear plant lead to the emergence of a large number of radioactive elements, which can be exhausted into the atmosphere, drinking water and other foods and substances, as well as penetrate people's organisms and cause health problems.
The accidents that took place at the Japanese nuclear plant have increased the content of iodine. According to experts, the elements of iodine can't exist for a long time. They decay within 7-15 days and are not dangerous to people's health.
A group of experts conducts studies and observations at Armenia's nuclear plant and always controls the level of radiation.
President of "For Sustainable Human Development" NGO Karine Danielyan says the creation of such a situation at Fukusima nuclear plant is mainly linked to the fact that Japan doesn't have fundamental science experts in the nuclear energy sphere and is transferring and exploiting the results and technologies from other countries.
The Japanese are experts in exploitation and the emergence of a dangerous situation, especially in the first three days following the disaster in Japan was due to the lack of expert investigators.
Environmentalist Karine Danielyan noted that she notices an outflow of these experts from Armenia and this can be a huge test for a country with a nuclear plant, especially since Armenia is preparing to create a new nuclear plant.
