DACCA: Pakistan and Turkey will exchange ideas to solve mutual problems in the use and development of atomic energies in the two countries, the chief of Turkish Atomic Energy, Mr Ibrahim Deriner, said here yesterday [Nov 23]. Talking to APP on his arrival here on a short visit, he said that Turkey was likely to get technical advice from Pakistan in atomic field, as she had already made some progress in it.

The other members of the delegation are Dr Sadik Kakat and Prof Mehmet Enjat. The delegation has already visited Karachi Nuclear Power Project and met the Chairman of Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission, Dr I.H. Usmani. They will visit Dacca Centre where research on agriculture has made considerable progress.

The chief of Turkish Atomic Energy Commission said that since there was nothing secret between the two brotherly countries, both the nations should avoid common mistakes in their bid for advancement. Concrete understanding was likely to be reached after the delegation holds a second round of talks with their Pakistani counterparts.

The delegation will invite a Pakistani delegation to visit Turkey which planned to have a four hundred MW nuclear power plant by 1976. The delegation will later go to Lahore and Islamabad to see the establishments of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission.
