South Korea to Aid Jordanian Nuclear Program

South Korea and Jordan have signed a cooperation agreement that would support the Middle Eastern nation's quest to generate 30 percent of its electricity with nuclear reactors by 2040, Reuters reported today (see GSN, Nov. 26).

"The Jordanian government wished to cooperate with South Korea for the projects as (South Korean companies) have competitive skills in these areas," said a statement from the Korea Electric Power Corp. (Angela Moon, Reuters, Dec. 1).
