".
To start with Ignalina, the second reactor at that plant should be closed by end of 2009. That is not a decision by the Commission, but part of the Accession Treaty. The situation is therefore quite clear-cut.
I recently met with the Lithuanian Foreign Affairs Minister and he confirmed that there are no concerns as regards the impact that closing Ignalina will have on energy production in Lithuania. While this closure will definitely change the balance in the Baltic area, it will not create any particular difficulties for Lithuania or for other Baltic countries. I therefore see no link between the closure of Ignalina and security of supply in the Baltic region.
It is difficult for me to comment on the position of Poland, but my contacts with the Polish Government and authorities have shown that they are open to developing this project. I have no doubt that this will be in the interests not only of Lithuania but also of Poland."@en1
