The completion of the Khmelnitsky nuclear power plant will strengthen the energy safety of not only Ukraine, but the entire European region.

This was stated by President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, speaking at the 61st Munich Security Conference on February 15.

" Just the day before Munich, I was at the station. This project will strengthen the energy security of not only Ukraine, but the entire European region, ”the head of state noted.

He emphasized that in the conditions of constant Russian attacks on the energy sector, nuclear energy plays a key role in ensuring the country's vitality.

According to the president, nuclear energy was one of the topics discussed during a telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump.

Recall, on January 11, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine gave green light to the completion of power units No. 3 and No. 4 of the Khmelnitsky nuclear power plant, which are ready by 80% and 25%, respectively.
