    [03] Ritt Bjerregaard on Chernobyl

    !!! embargo 3.30 pm !!!

    Speaking to the European Parliament today on the Chernobyl accident, Environment Commissioner Ritt Bjerregaard welcomed the decision of Ukrainian President Kutchma to close Chernobyl by the year 2000. In the framework of the G7 the Commission will continue to cooperate with the Ukraine and the International Financial Institutions to fully implement the Memorandum of Understanding, signed in Ottawa in 1995. "The conditions for a worldwide cooperation have never been as favourable as they are today : In contrast to 1986, the world is no longer divided by the Cold War. Instead of the formerly prevailing confrontation we have now established a network of cooperation with the States which succeeded the Soviet Union. Some of us may therefore be impatient about the progress of this cooperation. But let us not forget : we have to respect the sovereignity of our partners as independent states," Ritt Bjerregaard said. !!! embargo 3.30. pm !!!
