Let me summarize: The main elements of the energy supply in the

foreseeable future are well known. There are not many ways in which we

can supply the electric energy which will be needed to achieve further

development. The main choice will most often be between coal and nuclear

fuel. There are some serious concerns about nuclear power in several

countries but a public information and a renewed record of good

operations should help to allay them.

Nuclear power programmes are now

being pursued vigorously in 32 countries and the Chernobyl accident,

although its impact was important for the concerns in some countries, has

not influenced the global developments in a significant manner.

view nuclear power will survive Chernobyl and expand tomorrow.
