Rome (ANSAmed): "The Turkish government will call in the near future a tender to assign the works to build the first nuclear power plant in Turkey," Turkish Industry Minister Ali Coskun declared.
"Turkey realized late the need to seek alternative energy sources and now has to resort to remedies. We shall run out of all the most popular energy sources in 2060 and then we'll have to be prepared. We need alternative energy resources and we have to think of nuclear energy," Coskun said on the sidelines of the Italian-Turkish seminar in Rome yesterday.
