Turkish authorities in Ankara have demanded an immediate closure of the nuclear station in Armenia which it claims is a threat to the entire region after authorities in Yerevan decided to extend its lifetime for another decade.

Turkey's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Taner Yildiz told Turkish media on Wednesday that the Metsamor nuclear power plant has been operating for over 40 years to reach an age beyond which it begins to pose a "great threat".
