lpv:spoken text	". I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time. The Commission is aware that the option to use nuclear energy has been under consideration in Turkey for years, since 1965. We have informed Parliament on this issue on several occasions. At this point, Turkey does not operate any nuclear power plant, nor has a licence been issued for the construction of any such plant. The Commission recalls that under the Treaties, each Member State is free to use the energy sources of its choice. Currently, roughly half of all Member States use nuclear energy. Consequently, the decision to use or not to use nuclear power has never been the subject of any accession negotiations. However, as you may recall, in the previous enlargement round, the EU insisted on the need for a high level of nuclear safety in candidate countries operating nuclear plants, and substantial parts of the pre-accession strategy have been devoted to this aim. In certain cases, the EU has even demanded the early closure of old nuclear plants or nuclear reactors which had been identified by the international community as non-upgradeable at reasonable cost. If Turkey is going to generate nuclear energy, it will obviously have to ensure a high level of nuclear safety as well. As a candidate country, Turkey will also be expected to comply with the Euratom acquis on nuclear safeguards and radiation protection, as well as the Directive on Environmental Impact Assessments. This includes transboundary consultation with Member States. Under the International Convention of Nuclear Safety, of which the European Atomic Energy Community is a contracting party, Turkey already has an obligation to consult neighbouring countries on proposed nuclear installations. Several potential sites have been named in the past in Turkey, while only one site has received a licence. Studies for up to three other possible sites have recently been included in the investment plans of the Ministry of Energy. The Commission has followed with interest the situation as it has evolved, and in particular the evaluation of relevant seismic conditions. It is clear that any nuclear power plant would have to be designed and built in a manner allowing it to withstand any potential seismic event and thus guarantee the necessary level of safety under all conditions."@en⁴

Kommissionen er klar over, at Tyrkiet har overvejet muligheden for at anvende atomenergi i år, nemlig siden 1965. Vi har informeret Parlamentet om dette spørgsmål ved flere lejligheder. På nuværende tidspunkt driver Tyrkiet ingen atomkraftværker, og der er heller blevet udstedt nogen licens til at opføre et sådant værk. Kommissionen minder om, at de enkelte medlemsstater i henhold til traktaterne kan benytte de energikilder, de ønsker. For øjeblikket benytter ca. halvdelen af medlemsstaterne atomenergi. Som følge heraf har beslutningen om at benytte atomkraft aldrig været diskuteret under tiltrædelsesforhandlinger. Men De husker nok, at EU under den foregående udvidelsesrunde lagde stor vægt på et højt niveau for nuklear sikkerhed i de kandidatlande, der drev atomkraftværker, og væsentlige dele af førtiltrædelsesstrategien har været viet til dette formål. I visse tilfælde har EU endog forlangt, at gamle atomkraftværker eller atomreaktorer, som ifølge det internationale samfund ikke kunne moderniseres til en rimelig pris, blev lukket før tiden. Hvis Tyrkiet skal generere atomenergi, skal det naturligvis også sørge for et højt niveau for nuklear sikkerhed. Som kandidatland vil Tyrkiet også forventes at overholde Euratom-bestemmelserne om nuklear sikkerhedskontrol og strålingsbeskyttelse og direktivet om vurdering af miljøpåvirkninger. Dette omfatter grænseoverskridende høring af medlemsstater. I henhold til den internationale konvention om nuklear sikkerhed, som Det Europæiske Atomenergifællesskab har tiltrådt, er Tyrkiet allerede forpligtet til at høre nabolande om påtænkte nukleare anlæg. I tidens løb er der udpeget flere mulige steder i Tyrkiet, men kun et sted har modtaget licens. Undersøgelser af op til tre andre mulige steder er for nylig blevet inddraget i energiministeriets investeringsplaner. Kommissionen har fulgt situationens udvikling med interesse, navnlig undersøgelsen af relevante seismiske forhold. Det er indlysende, at ethvert atomkraftværk skal designes og bygges således, at det kan modstå enhver seismisk begivenhed og dermed garantere det fornødne sikkerhedsniveau i enhver situation."@da² ". Ich würde sehr gern auf die Frage zu Zypern antworten, aber das kann ich das nächste Mal tun. Der Kommission ist bekannt, dass die Türkei seit vielen Jahren, und zwar seit 1965, die Möglichkeit der Nutzung von Kernenergie in Betracht zieht. Wir haben das Parlament mehrfach über die Problematik informiert. Zurzeit betreibt die Türkei weder ein Kernkraftwerk noch wurde eine Genehmigung für den Bau einer solchen Anlage erteilt. Die Kommission verweist darauf, dass es nach den Verträgen jedem Mitgliedstaat freisteht, sich für die Energiequellen seiner Wahl zu entscheiden. Derzeit nutzt etwa die Hälfte aller Mitgliedstaaten Kernenergie. Demzufolge war die Entscheidung für oder gegen die Nutzung von Kernenergie zu keinem Zeitpunkt Gegenstand von Beitrittsverhandlungen. Sie werden sich aber vielleicht erinnern, dass die EU bei der vorigen Erweiterungsrunde auf einem hohen Niveau der nuklearen Sicherheit in den Kandidatenländern bestand, die Kernkraftwerke betreiben, und große Teile der Heranführungsstrategie waren auf dieses Ziel ausgerichtet. In bestimmten Fällen hat die EU sogar die vorzeitige Stilllegung alter Kernkraftwerke oder Kernreaktoren gefordert, die nach Ansicht der internationalen Gemeinschaft nicht mit einem angemessenen Kostenaufwand modernisiert werden konnten. Wenn sich die Türkei für die Erzeugung von Kernenergie entscheidet, dann muss sie selbstverständlich auch für ein hohes Maß an nuklearer Sicherheit sorgen. Man würde ferner von der Türkei erwarten, dass sie als Beitrittskandidat den Euratom-Besitzstand in Bezug auf die nukleare Sicherheitsüberwachung und den Strahlenschutz übernimmt und die Richtlinie über die Umweltverträglichkeitsprüfung umsetzt. Das umfasst auch die Konsultation anderer Mitgliedstaaten. Nach dem Internationalen Übereinkommen über Nukleare Sicherheit, dem die Europäische Atomgemeinschaft beigetreten ist, wäre die Türkei ohnehin verpflichtet, Nachbarländer zu geplanten Nuklearanlagen zu konsultieren. In der Vergangenheit wurden mehrere potenzielle Standorte in der Türkei genannt, aber nur ein Standort hat eine Lizenz erhalten. In die Investitionspläne des Energieministeriums wurden kürzlich Studien für bis zu drei weitere mögliche Standorte aufgenommen. Die Kommission verfolgt die diesbezüglichen Entwicklungen mit großer Aufmerksamkeit, und zwar insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Evaluierung der jeweiligen seismischen Bedingungen. Klar ist, dass ein potenzielles Kernkraftwerk so konstruiert und gebaut werden müsste, dass es möglichen seismischen Einwirkungen standhält und damit die erforderliche Sicherheit unter allen Bedingungen gewährleistet."@de⁹ "Θα ήθελα πολύ να απαντήσω στην ερώτηση για την Κύπρο, αλλά μπορώ να το κάνω την επόμενη φορά. Η Επιτροπή γνωρίζει ότι η πιθανότητα της χρήσης πυρηνικής ενέργειας εξετάζεται στην Τουρκία εδώ και χρόνια, από το 1965. Έχουμε ενημερώσει το Κοινοβούλιο για το θέμα αυτό σε αρκετές περιπτώσεις. Αυτή τη στιγμή, η Τουρκία δεν έχει θέσει σε λειτουργία κανέναν πυρηνικό σταθμό, ούτε έχει εκδοθεί άδεια για την κατασκευή πυρηνικού σταθμού. Η Επιτροπή υπενθυμίζει ότι σύμφωνα με τις Συνθήκες, κάθε κράτος μέλος είναι ελεύθερο να χρησιμοποιεί τις πηγές ενέργειας της επιλογής του. Επί του παρόντος, περίπου τα μισά κράτη μέλη χρησιμοποιούν πυρηνική ενέργεια. Συνεπώς, η απόφαση για τη χρήση ή μη χρήση της πυρηνικής ενέργειας δεν έχει αποτελέσει ποτέ θέμα ενταξιακών διαπραγματεύσεων. Εντούτοις, όπως μπορεί να θυμάστε, στον προηγούμενο γύρο διεύρυνσης, η ΕΕ επέμεινε στην ανάγκη πυρηνικής ασφάλειας υψηλού επιπέδου στις υποψήφιες χώρες στις οποίες λειτουργούν πυρηνικοί σταθμοί και σημαντικά τμήματα της προενταξιακής στρατηγικής έχουν αφιερωθεί σε αυτό το στόχο. Σε ορισμένες περιπτώσεις μάλιστα, η ΕΕ απαίτησε το πρόωρο κλείσιμο παλαιών πυρηνικών σταθμών ή πυρηνικών αντιδραστήρων, οι οποίοι είχαν χαρακτηριστεί από τη διεθνή κοινότητα ως μη επιδεχόμενοι αναβάθμιση με λογικό κόστος. Αν η Τουρκία σκοπεύει να παράγει πυρηνική ενέργεια, θα πρέπει προφανώς να διασφαλίσει και υψηλό επίπεδο πυρηνικής ασφάλειας. Ως υποψήφια χώρα, η Τουρκία οφείλει επίσης να συμμορφωθεί με το κεκτημένο της Ευρατόμ αναφορικά με τα μέτρα προφύλαξης από την πυρηνική ενέργεια και την προστασία από την πυρηνική ακτινοβολία, καθώς και με την οδηγία για τις εκτιμήσεις των περιβαλλοντικών επιπτώσεων. Αυτό περιλαμβάνει διασυνοριακή διαβούλευση με τα κράτη μέλη. Σύμφωνα με τη διεθνή σύμβαση για την πυρηνική ασφάλεια, της οποίας η Ευρωπαϊκή Κοινότητα Ατομικής Ενέργειας είναι συμβαλλόμενο μέρος, η Τουρκία έχει ήδη υποχρέωση να προχωρήσει σε διαβουλεύσεις με τις γείτονες χώρες για προτεινόμενες πυρηνικές εγκαταστάσεις. Διάφοροι πιθανοί τόποι έχουν προταθεί στο παρελθόν από την Τουρκία, από τους οποίους μόνο ένας έχει αδειοδοτηθεί. Πρόσφατα, συμπεριελήφθησαν στα επενδυτικά σχέδια του Υπουργείου Ενέργειας μελέτες για τρεις πιθανούς τόπους. Η Επιτροπή παρακολούθησε με ενδιαφέρον την κατάσταση όπως εξελίχθηκε και ειδικά την εκτίμηση συναφών αντισεισμικών συνθηκών. Είναι σαφές ότι κάθε πυρηνικός σταθμός θα πρέπει να σχεδιάζεται και να κατασκευάζεται κατά τρόπον ώστε να επιτρέπει την αντιμετώπιση κάθε πιθανού σεισμικού γεγονότος και συνεπώς να εξασφαλίζει το απαραίτητο επίπεδο ασφάλειας υπό όλες τις συνθήκες."@el¹⁰ ". Me gustaría responder a la cuestión de Chipre, pero lo dejaré para la próxima ocasión. La Comisión es consciente de que la opción de recurrir a la energía nuclear se ha planteado en Turquía durante años, desde 1965. Hemos informado al Parlamento de esta cuestión en varias ocasiones. En estos momentos Turquía no tiene ninguna central nuclear en funcionamiento ni ha concedido licencia alguna para la construcción de una central de este tipo. La Comisión recuerda que, de conformidad con los Tratados, cada Estado miembro es libre de usar las fuentes de energía que prefiera. En la actualidad, casi la mitad de todos los Estados miembros hacen uso de la energía nuclear. Por consiguiente, la decisión de usar o no energía nuclear nunca ha sido objeto de las negociaciones para la adhesión. Sin embargo, como ustedes recordarán, en la anterior ronda de ampliación, la UE insistió en la necesidad de contar con altos niveles de seguridad nuclear en los países candidatos con centrales nucleares en funcionamiento, y una parte sustancial de la estrategia de preadhesión se dedicó a este objetivo. En determinados casos, la UE incluso solicitó el cierre anticipado de viejas centrales nucleares o de reactores nucleares que la comunidad internacional consideraba imposibles de mejorar a un coste razonable. Si Turquía quiere generar energía nuclear, sin duda tendrá que garantizar también un alto grado de seguridad nuclear. Como país candidato, también se espera de Turquía que cumpla el acervo de Euratom sobre las salvaguardias nucleares y la protección radiológica, así como la Directiva sobre evaluación del impacto ambiental. Ello incluye una consulta transfronteriza con los Estados miembros. De acuerdo con la Convención internacional sobre la seguridad nuclear, de la que la Comunidad Europea de la Energía Atómica es parte contratante, Turquía ya tiene la obligación de consultar a los países vecinos acerca de las instalaciones nucleares propuestas. En el pasado se han mencionado en Turquía varios emplazamientos posibles, pero solo uno ha recibido una licencia. Recientemente se han incluido en los planes de inversión del Ministerio de Energía estudios para otros tres emplazamientos posibles. La Comisión ha seguido con interés la evolución de la situación, y en particular la evaluación de las respectivas condiciones sísmicas. Está claro que cualquier central nuclear debería diseñarse y construirse de forma que resista cualquier seísmo potencial y garantizar, de esta manera, el grado de seguridad necesario en condiciones de todo tipo."@es²⁰ "I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time.

Haluaisin erittäin mielelläni vastata Kyprosta koskevaan kysymykseen, mutta voin tehdä niin ensi kerralla. Komissio on tietoinen siitä, että Turkissa on harkittu ydinenergian käytön mahdollisuutta vuosien ajan, jo vuodesta 1965 lähtien. Olemme tiedottaneet asiasta parlamentille useaan otteeseen. Turkilla ei ole tällä hetkellä toiminnassa olevaa ydinvoimalaitosta, eikä myöskään lupaa sellaisen rakentamiseen ole annettu. Komissio muistuttaa, että jokaisella jäsenvaltiolla on perussopimusten nojalla vapaus käyttää valitsemiaan energiamuotoja. Tällä hetkellä karkeasti puolet kaikista jäsenvaltioista käyttää ydinenergiaa. Päätöstä käyttää tai olla käyttämättä ydinenergiaa ei näin ollen ole koskaan käsitelty missään liittymisneuvotteluissa. Kuten ehkä muistattekin, EU kuitenkin korosti edellisellä laajentumiskierroksella tarvetta taata ehdokasvaltioissa toimivien ydinvoimaloiden korkea ydinturvallisuuden taso, ja huomattava osa liittymistä edeltävästä strategiasta on omistettu tämän tavoitteen saavuttamiseen. Unioni on tietyissä tapauksissa jopa vaatinut ehdokasvaltioita poistamaan suunniteltua aikaisemmin käytöstä vanhoja ydinvoimaloita tai ydinreaktoreita, jotka kansainvälinen yhteisö on määritellyt sellaisiksi, joiden turvallisuutta ei voida nostaa kohtuullisin kustannuksin riittävän korkealle tasolle. Jos Turkki aikoo tuottaa ydinenergiaa, sen on tietysti myös taattava ydinturvallisuuden korkea taso. Ehdokasvaltiona Turkin odotetaan myös noudattavan ydinenergian turvallisuuden valvontaa ja säteilyturvaa koskevaa Euratomin säännöstä samoin kuin ympäristövaikutusten arviointia koskevaa direktiiviä. Viimeksi mainittuun sisältyvät myös jäsenvaltioiden väliset neuvottelut. Euroopan atomienergiayhteisö on sopimuspuolena ydinturvallisuutta koskevassa yleissopimuksessa, jonka nojalla Turkilla on jo velvollisuus kuulla naapurivaltioita ehdotetuista ydinvoimalaitoksista. Turkissa on nimetty ydinvoimalaitokselle aiemmin useita mahdollisia sijoituspaikkoja, mutta vain yksi niistä on saanut rakennusluvan. Jopa kolmea muuta mahdollista sijoituspaikkaa koskevat tutkimukset on äskettäin sisällytetty energiaministeriön investointisuunnitelmiin. Komissio on seurannut kiinnostuneena tilanteen kehittymistä ja erityisesti asianomaisten sijoituspaikkojen seismisten olosuhteiden arviointia. On selvää, että ydinvoimala on suunniteltava ja rakennettava kaikissa tapauksissa siten, että se kestää kaikki mahdolliset maanjäristykset ja takaa siten tarvittavan turvallisuustason kaikissa olosuhteissa."@fi⁷ "J’aimerais beaucoup répondre à la question sur Chypre, mais je peux le faire la prochaine fois. La Commission sait que l’option de l’énergie nucléaire est à l’étude en Turquie depuis de années, à savoir depuis 1965. Nous avons informé le Parlement à ce sujet à plusieurs reprises. Pour le moment, la Turquie n’exploite aucune centrale nucléaire, et aucune licence ne lui a été octroyée pour la construction d’une telle centrale. La Commission rappelle qu’en vertu des Traités, chaque État membre est libre d’utiliser les sources d’énergie de son choix. Actuellement, environ la moitié de tous les États membres utilisent l’énergie nucléaire. Par conséquent, la décision d’utiliser ou non l’énergie nucléaire n’a jamais été incluse dans les négociations d’adhésion. Toutefois, comme vous vous en souvenez peut-être, lors du précédent cycle d’élargissement, l’UE a insisté sur la nécessité d’un haut niveau de sûreté nucléaire dans les pays candidats exploitant des centrales nucléaires, et une part substantielle de la stratégie de pré-adhésion a été consacrée à cet objectif. Dans certains cas, l’UE a même exigé la fermeture anticipée de vieilles centrales nucléaires ou d’anciens réacteurs nucléaires identifiés par la communauté internationale comme non modernisables à un coût raisonnable. Si la Turquie veut produire de l’énergie nucléaire, elle devra évidemment, elle aussi, garantir un niveau élevé de sûreté nucléaire. En tant que pays candidat, la Turquie devra également se conformer à l’acquis Euratom en matière de sauvegarde nucléaire et de protection contre les radiations, ainsi qu’à la directive sur les évaluations d’impact environnemental. Ces obligations incluent la consultation transfrontalière avec les États membres. Aux termes de la convention internationale sur la sûreté nucléaire, à laquelle la Communauté européenne de l’énergie atomique est partie contractante, la Turquie est déjà tenue de consulter les pays voisins au sujet des installations nucléaires proposées. Plusieurs sites potentiels ont été nommés dans le passé en Turquie, mais un seul a fait l’objet d’un octroi de licence. Des études concernant trois autres sites possibles ont été incluses récemment dans les plans d’investissement du ministère de l’énergie. La Commission a suivi avec intérêt l’évolution de la situation, et en particulier l’évaluation des conditions sismiques pertinentes. Il est clair que toute centrale nucléaire devrait être conçue et construite de manière à résister à toute manifestation sismique potentielle et à garantir le niveau nécessaire de sûreté dans toutes les conditions."@fr⁸ "I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time.

La Commissione è a conoscenza del fatto che in Turchia l’opzione di impiegare l’energia nucleare è stata presa in considerazione da anni, precisamente dal 1965. Abbiamo informato il Parlamento al riguardo in diverse occasioni. Al momento la Turchia non ha alcun impianto nucleare operativo, né è stato accordato il permesso di costruirne alcuno. La Commissione ricorda che, in base ai Trattati, ciascuno Stato membro è libero di impiegare risorse energetiche di sua scelta. Attualmente circa la metà di tutti gli Stati membri utilizza l’energia nucleare. Di conseguenza la decisione di impiegarla o meno non è mai stata oggetto di nessuno dei negoziati di adesione. Tuttavia, come lei ricorderà, in occasione del precedente allargamento l’Unione ha insistito sulla necessità di un alto livello di sicurezza nucleare da parte dei paesi candidati nei quali erano in funzione impianti nucleari, dedicando una parte considerevole della strategia di preadesione a questo scopo. In alcuni casi l’Unione ha anche chiesto una sollecita chiusura delle vecchie centrali o dei reattori nucleari che la comunità internazionale aveva ritenuto non migliorabili a costi ragionevoli. Se la Turchia intende produrre energia nucleare, dovrà ovviamente anche garantire un alto livello di sicurezza. Ci si aspetta inoltre che, in qualità di paese candidato, la Turchia ottemperi all’ dell’Euratom sulla sicurezza nucleare e sulla protezione dalle radiazioni nonché alla direttiva sulla valutazione di impatto ambientale, cosa che comporta anche la consultazione transfrontaliera con Stati membri. In base alla Convenzione internazionale sulla sicurezza nucleare, della quale è parte contraente la Comunità europea dell’energia atomica, la Turchia ha già l’obbligo di consultare i paesi limitrofi sugli impianti nucleari in progetto. In passato sono stati fatti i nomi di molti siti possibili in Turchia, ma solo uno di essi ha ottenuto un’autorizzazione. Nei piani d’investimento del ministero dell’Energia sono stati recentemente inclusi studi per designare fino a tre altre possibili sedi. La Commissione ha seguito con interesse la situazione nel suo evolversi, e in particolare la valutazione delle relative condizioni sismiche. E’ chiaro che qualsiasi impianto nucleare dovrebbe essere progettato e costruito in modo da permettergli di sopportare ogni potenziale evento sismico e garantire in tal modo il livello di sicurezza necessario sotto tutti gli aspetti."@it¹² "I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time.

Ik wil graag reageren op de kwestie van Cyprus, maar dat kan ik ook volgende keer doen. De Commissie is zich ervan bewust dat Turkije al jaren, namelijk sinds 1965, overweegt kernenergie te gaan gebruiken. We hebben het Parlement hiervan verschillende keren op de hoogte gebracht. Op dit moment heeft Turkije geen kerncentrale in gebruik. Er is evenmin een vergunning afgegeven voor de bouw van zo'n centrale. De Commissie herinnert eraan dat het elke lidstaat krachtens de Verdragen vrij staat de energiebronnen van zijn keuze te gebruiken. Momenteel maakt ruwweg de helft van alle lidstaten gebruik van kernenergie. Het besluit om al dan niet kernenergie te gebruiken is in toetredingsonderhandelingen dus nooit een onderwerp geweest. Zoals u zich wellicht herinnert, heeft de EU in de vorige uitbreidingsronde echter gestaan op de noodzaak van een hoge mate van nucleaire veiligheid in de kandidaat-landen die kerncentrales in gebruik hebben. Aanzienlijke delen van de pretoetredingsstrategie zijn aan dit doel gewijd. In bepaalde gevallen heeft de EU zelfs geëist dat oude kerncentrales of kernreactoren waarvan de internationale gemeenschap had vastgesteld dat ze niet tegen redelijke kosten konden worden verbeterd, vroegtijdig werden gesloten. Als Turkije kernenergie gaat opwekken, zal het land natuurlijk ook een hoge mate van nucleaire veiligheid moeten garanderen. Als kandidaat-land zal van Turkije ook worden verwacht dat het voldoet aan het acquis van Euratom met betrekking tot de nucleaire beveiliging en stralingsbescherming, alsook aan de richtlijn inzake de milieueffectbeoordeling. Dit houdt grensoverschrijdende raadpleging van lidstaten in. Volgens het Internationaal Verdrag inzake nucleaire veiligheid, waarin de Europese Gemeenschap voor Atoomenergie contractpartij is, is Turkije al verplicht buurlanden te raadplegen over voorgestelde nucleaire installaties. In het verleden zijn in Turkije verschillende potentiële locaties genoemd, terwijl slechts één locatie een vergunning heeft gekregen. Studies naar maximaal drie andere mogelijke locaties zijn onlangs opgenomen in de investeringsplannen van het ministerie van Energie. De Commissie volgt met belangstelling hoe de situatie zich ontwikkelt, en volgt in het bijzonder de evaluatie van de relevante seismische omstandigheden. Het is duidelijk dat een eventuele kerncentrale zodanig moet worden ontworpen en gebouwd, dat hij bestand is tegen elke potentiële seismische gebeurtenis, zodat de vereiste mate van veiligheid onder alle omstandigheden is gewaarborgd."@nl³ "I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time. The Commission is aware that the option to use nuclear energy has been under consideration in Turkey for years, since 1965. We have informed Parliament on this issue on several occasions. At this point, Turkey does not operate any nuclear power plant, nor has a licence been issued for the construction of any such plant. The Commission recalls that under the Treaties, each Member State is free to use the energy sources of its choice. Currently, roughly half of all Member States use nuclear energy. Consequently, the decision to use or not to use nuclear power has never been the subject of any accession negotiations. However, as you may recall, in the previous enlargement round, the EU insisted on the need for a high level of nuclear safety in candidate countries operating nuclear plants, and substantial parts of the pre-accession strategy have been devoted to this aim. In certain cases, the EU has even demanded the early closure of old nuclear plants or nuclear reactors which had been identified by the international community as non-upgradeable at reasonable cost. If Turkey is going to generate nuclear energy, it will obviously have to ensure a high level of nuclear safety as well. As a candidate country, Turkey will also be expected to comply with the Euratom acquis on nuclear safeguards and radiation protection, as well as the Directive on Environmental Impact Assessments. This includes transboundary consultation with Member States. Under the International Convention of Nuclear Safety, of which the European Atomic Energy Community is a contracting party, Turkey already has an obligation to consult neighbouring countries on proposed nuclear installations. Several potential sites have been named in the past in Turkey, while only one site has received a licence. Studies for up to three other possible sites have recently been included in the investment plans of the Ministry of Energy. The Commission has followed with interest the situation as it has evolved, and in particular the evaluation of relevant seismic conditions. It is clear that any nuclear power plant would have to be designed and built in a manner allowing it to withstand any potential seismic event and thus guarantee the necessary level of safety under all conditions."@pl¹⁶ "Gostaria muito de responder à pergunta sobre Chipre, mas fá-lo-ei da próxima vez. A Comissão está ciente que a opção de se recorrer à energia nuclear tem estado a ser ponderada na Turquia há anos, desde 1965. Informámos o Parlamento a este respeito em diversas ocasiões. Neste momento, a Turquia não opera qualquer central nuclear, nem possui qualquer licença emitida para a construção de uma central. A Comissão recorda que, nos termos dos Tratados, qualquer Estado-Membro é livre de utilizar as fontes de energia que bem entender. Actualmente, praticamente metade dos Estados-Membros usa energia nuclear. Por conseguinte, a decisão de recorrer ao uso da energia nuclear nunca foi objecto de quaisquer negociações de adesão. No entanto, como saberão, na ronda de alargamento anterior, a UE insistiu na necessidade de um elevado grau de segurança nuclear nas centrais nucleares em funcionamento nos países candidatos, e uma parte substancial da estratégia de pré-adesão foi dedicada a esse objectivo. Nalguns casos, a UE exigiu inclusivamente o encerramento precoce de velhas centrais nucleares, ou de reactores nucleares identificados pela comunidade internacional como não sendo passíveis de modernização a custos razoáveis. Se a Turquia quiser gerar energia nuclear, terá, obviamente, que garantir também um elevado grau de segurança nuclear. Na qualidade de país candidato, espera-se igualmente da Turquia que cumpra o acervo Euratom em matéria de salvaguardas nucleares e de protecção contra as radiações, bem como a Directiva relativa aos Estudos de impacto Ambiental. Nesta prevê-se a consulta transfronteiriça a Estados-Membros. Ao abrigo da Convenção Internacional sobre a Segurança Nuclear, de que a Comunidade Europeia da Energia Atómica é parte contratante, a Turquia está obrigada a consultar os Estados vizinhos relativamente a propostas de construção de centrais nucleares. Foram designados, no passado, na Turquia, diversos locais potenciais, sendo que apenas um obteve uma licença. Foram recentemente incluídos nos planos de investimento do Ministério da Energia estudos sobre cerca de três outros locais possíveis. A Comissão acompanhou com interesse a evolução da situação e, em especial, a avaliação das condições sísmicas dos mesmos locais. É evidente que qualquer central nuclear terá de ser concebida e construída de forma a permitir que resista a qualquer abalo sísmico e, assim, garantir o necessário grau de segurança em quaisquer circunstâncias."@pt¹⁷ "I would very much like to respond to the question of Cyprus, but I can do that next time.

Jag skulle oerhört gärna vilja svara på frågan om Cypern, men jag kan göra det nästa gång. Kommissionen är medveten om att alternativet att använda kärnenergi har övervägts i Turkiet i år, alltsedan 1965. Vi har informerat parlamentet om denna fråga vid flera tillfällen. I nuläget driver inte Turkiet något kärnkraftverk, inte heller har något tillstånd beviljats för att bygga något sådant. Kommissionen påminner om att det enligt fördragen står varje medlemsstat fritt att använda energikällor efter sitt eget val. För närvarande använder i runda tal hälften av alla medlemsstater kärnenergi. Till följd av det har beslutet att använda eller inte använda kärnkraft aldrig blivit föremål för några anslutningsförhandlingar. Som ni emellertid kanske kommer ihåg har EU i tidigare utvidgningsrundor insisterat på en hög kärnsäkerhetsnivå i de kandidatländer som driver kärnkraftverk, och betydande delar av föranslutningsstrategin har ägnats åt detta mål. I vissa fall har EU till och med begärt tidig nedläggning av gamla kärnkraftverk eller kärnkraftsreaktorer som av världssamfundet hade identifierats som omöjliga att uppgradera till en rimlig kostnad. Om Turkiet kommer att framställa kärnenergi kommer de naturligtvis också att behöva säkerställa en hög kärnsäkerhetsnivå. Som kandidatland kommer Turkiet också att förväntas efterleva Euratoms regelverk för kärnsäkerhetskontroller och strålningsskydd, liksom direktivet om miljökonsekvensbeskrivning. Detta inbegriper gränsöverskridande rådfrågning med medlemsstaterna. Enligt den internationella konventionen om kärnsäkerhet, till vilken Europeiska atomenergigemenskapen är en avtalsslutande part, har Turkiet redan en förpliktelse att rådfråga grannländer om föreslagna kärnkraftverk. Flera potentiella platser har tidigare nämnts i Turkiet, medan endast en plats har beviljats tillstånd. Studier för upp till tre andra möjliga platser har nyligen inbegripits i energiministeriets investeringsplaner. Kommissionen har med intresse följt situationen allteftersom den har utvecklats, och i synnerhet utvecklingen av viktiga seismiska förhållanden. Det är uppenbart att alla kärnkraftverk skulle behöva utformas och byggas på ett sätt som gör det möjligt för dem att stå emot alla eventuella seismiska händelser, vilket således garanterar den nödvändiga säkerhetsnivån under alla förhållanden."@sv²¹
