The largest nuclear security centre in the Asia-Pacific region, jointly financed by China and the US to train personnel of countries on protection and control of nuclear materials, opened on Friday.
The centre, constructed by the China Atomic Energy Authority and the US Department of Energy, is able to train about 2,000 nuclear-security staff for China and other nations in the Asia-Pacific region every year, CAEA chair Xu Dazhe said.
Construction of the centre, which is the largest nuclear programme to have direct the Chinese and US investment, began in December 2013.
