Sarajevo is not your city, Mr Karadzic, but mine

02 March 2010 | By Nidzara Ahmetasevic

Radovan Karadzic Radovan Karadzic, Sarajevo is not your city, and you have no right to say that it is, just as you do not have the right to say in public, even if it’s in court, that someone has dug up bones around Bosnia and brought them to Srebrenica to make a fake graveyard. This is insulting.

Albania, Croatia to Build Nuclear Plant

Albania and Croatia plan to jointly build a nuclear power plant at Lake Shkoder, close to the border with Montenegro, Croatian officials say.

The plan provoked disagreements in Podgorica, where Cedomir Cejovic, a construction expert said it would be dangerous to build a nuclear plant in the quake-prone region, Montenegro's Television News said on Thursday.

Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic said there would be plenty of time to discuss issues involved in the plan.

Tomislav Mazal, a spokesman for the Croatian Economy Ministry, said a special team of experts will work on the project.

The 1,500-megawatt nuclear power plant, to be built on Albanian territory, would cost about $5.3 billion.

Albania, Croatia to Build Nuclear Plant

Montenegrins, WAKE UP! We have to do something to stop the intention of building nuclear power plant NOW. "Dear" Prime Minister, there is NO time, act NOW!

Nuclear eh?

To be honest I'm very sceptical about this news - none of these two countries have any experience in dealing with complex issues related to constructing a nuclear power plant, let alone its maintenance, waste disposal etc - hey even the British are getting their nuclear plants built by the French these days. Not to mention the volatility of the region and the possible serious implications that the combinations of terms nuclear power and ALBANIA or CROATIA for that matter could carry. To conclude, this sounds like daydreaming to me - both countries would do better to focus their intellectual efforts on getting rid od crime, corruption, poverty etc - there will be time for nuclear power perhaps, but this surely is not it...

Come on...
