1. Introduction

The European Union is facing one of the most urgent questions concerning its 
enlargement process - How safe is 'safe enough' for the EU with regards to the 
Soviet-design nuclear power plants in Central and Eastern Europe. 

This Friends of the Earth Europe paper addresses the question of how nuclear 
safety standards should be defined, an issue which is currently being discussed 
by the EU Council working group on Atomic questions. 

The nuclear safety upgrading programs (PHARE etc.) and several bilateral 
agreements did not solve this basic question. The often demanded "Western 
safety level" or "internationally acceptable safety level" or even "high nuclear 
safety'' are still empty phrases without a clear technical definition.

For a general background on nuclear safety in CEE and the history of EU 
involvement in this area, read Annex: Nuclear Safety and Enlargement.
