Russia Blackmailing the World with Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Threat


President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has raised alarms about the Russian occupation of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), warning that it poses a significant threat to global radiation safety. Zelenskyy emphasized the urgent need for the plant to be returned to Ukrainian control to ensure its safety and compliance with international standards.

For over two years, Russian forces have been in control of Europe’s largest nuclear power plant, the Zaporizhzhia NPP. This prolonged occupation has led to serious concerns about radiation safety, not just for Ukraine but for all of Europe and the world. Zelenskyy has accused Russia of using the plant as a base for military operations, including attacks on nearby communities such as Nikopol. He also highlighted that the Russian forces have been storing military equipment and ammunition at the plant, further exacerbating the risk.

In a recent social media statement, Zelenskyy pointed out that the return of the Zaporizhzhia NPP to Ukrainian control is essential for ensuring the plant adheres to all safety regulations. He stressed that Ukraine has a long-standing record of maintaining high safety standards for its nuclear facilities and is committed to continuing this practice. However, he argued that these efforts are being undermined by the ongoing Russian occupation.
