The Zaporizhzhia NPP will not work under the Russian occupation, but it is possible to restore it. Currently, there is no any stage of negotiations on the transfer of a nuclear power plant under the control of Ukraine.
This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a ZOOM briefing for journalists.
“There is no stage. If there were negotiations, I would tell you. It would be important to us. I think that the station will not work under the occupation. I think the station can be restored – a fact. I said frankly that it takes two years on average, maybe two and a half.
He noted that ZPP is needed for both Ukraine and people and Europe to join the European power grid. At the same time, the occupiers created a problem for its work.
“We can do all this. What they have undermined the dam, gave a serious impact. And technically, it has destroyed this station as much as possible. There is no water, these are big problems. So it will not work,” the president informed.
He added that in order for the station to be safe, Ukrainians must come to it. And not only because it is our station and our land, but also for safe work.
“You know, well, it’s not right. So just give the station to someone, someone, it is to someone? And if it is a station, and we want it to work for it, Ukrainians should come to it. Not just because it is our land, and it is our station, in this station. Zelensky.
The head of state also stressed that no one will work if everything will be occupied from the station and at any time the Russians will be able to blow them up. However, the beginnings of the station recovery are positive steps.
“Just give the station, and there for a meter from the station everything is occupied, or there is Russian weapons, no one will work so, no one will believe it. Because it is impossible. It means that tomorrow it will work, after tomorrow its Russians will blow up. Well, it is not serious. To restore it to work, I think that these are positive steps.
It should be noted that US Presidential Administration Donald Trump is negotiating with the Russian Federation on the Zaporozhye NPP. Ukraine has every chance of returning it.
Prior to that, US President Donald Trump called Putin’s “incomplete” response to the armistice proposed and hopes that the Russian dictator “will do the right thing.”
Recall that Russian dictator Putin says that it is not opposed to the US proposal to introduce a 30-day truce at the front. But it has many requirements for Ukraine and does not imagine how this ceasefire will work.
Meanwhile, the assistant of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin Yuri Ushakov stated that Moscow does not want a temporary truce with Ukraine. The aggressor country seems to be interested in long-term settlement.
