“The Ministry of Energy of Ukraine calls for immediate demilitarization of the station and returning it under the control of a legitimate operator”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
“Currently, the exact place of the fire and its possible consequences are established. We emphasize that the truck is located outside the protected perimeter of the station itself. This incident once again draws attention to the threats created by the Russian occupation of the largest nuclear object in Europe. The constant placement of the Russian military and personnel in the territory of the ZPP, as well as continuous psychological pressure on the Ukrainian staff of the station is a gross violation of international law and fundamental principles of nuclear security, ”the message reads.
The ministry added that “the only way to restore nuclear security is the immediate and complete demilitarization and de -occupation of the Zaporizhzhya NPP and return it under the full control of the legitimate operator – the Ukrainian SEE of NAEK” Energoatom “.
Zaporizhzhya NPP is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe. Russian troops occupied the city of Energodar and located near him Zaporizhzhya NPP in early March 2022.
The territory of the station periodically undergoes shelling in which Ukraine and Russia are accused of each other. The Ukrainian side from time to time states that the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant is on the verge of Blacka through Russian shelling and as a result of damage to power lines.
