Against the Russian Federation and its entire nuclear industry, new sanctions should be introduced due to the shelling of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. This was stated in the traditional evening address by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.

“We are actively informing the world about Russian nuclear blackmail – about the shelling and mining of Zaporozhye NPP facilities. There are already responses from the international community. But these response actions need to be accelerated, ”he said, adding that Russia would not pay attention to words and concerns..

The President noted that the world should remember that ZNPP is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe.

“The Chernobyl disaster is an explosion in one reactor. Zaporozhye NPP is six power units,” he added.

The Director General of the IAEA said that the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant is out of control.

Recall that the Russians delivered an unknown cargo to the territory of the occupied Zaporozhye NPP in Energodar. Some premises of the station are mined.

As a result of shelling, the 4th power unit of the Zaporizhzhya NPP was disconnected from the power system and transferred to the reserve.
