Given the recent Russian attacks on Ukraine, the International Nuclear Energy Authority IAEA is again deeply delivered – it warns of a nuclear accident at a nuclear power plant.
Since the beginning of the bloody Russian aggression war, IAEA has played a central role in protecting and following the situation and safety of the Ukrainian nuclear power plants. She regularly sends experts -teams at the active reactor locations in Riwne and Chmelnyzkyj and has been in the Saporischschja -Kerncentrale since September 2022, which has been under Russian control since March 2022.
“It is clear that the dangers for nuclear safety are still very real and omnipresent,” said Iaea Baas Rafael Grossi in the Ukrainian capital Kiev Tuesday. His teams had reported that “this was the most intense day with air attack salts they have experienced since the end of last year”.
Even more than three years after the start of the war, the presence of the IAEA is still essential to prevent the risk of a serious nuclear accident, Grossi explained. The situation is still dangerous for nuclear safety.
Unusually often frequent frequent warnings for aircraft
The teams of experts would have had a maximum of three times in the hiding places due to unusually frequent air strikes. Grossi added that it was also crucial to prepare for the reconstruction phase of the energy infrastructure, in which the IAEA could also play an important role.
The Ukrainian President Wolodyymyr Senskyj complained on the Platform X, all the ideas of Russia to bring the Saporischschja nuclear power plant back into effect without Ukraine, were absurd and dangerous. That is why the IAEA must be present in the facility without artificial obstacles.
Ukraine depending on nuclear energy
The Ukraine attacked by Russia in February 2022 comprises more than half of its electricity requirements with nuclear energy. Time and again the Russian army tries to paralyze the Ukrainian power supply by targeted power plants and electricity grid attacks.
