Russia Ukraine Crisis: Ukraine's nuclear plant out of control, UN warns


Posted on 4th Aug 2022 03:04 pm by rohit kumar

The UN's nuclear chief has warned that Europe's largest nuclear power plant in Ukraine is completely out of control. He urged Russia-Ukraine to allow experts to visit the complex at the earliest to stabilize the situation and avoid a nuclear accident. International Atomic Energy Agency director general Rafael Grassi said the situation at the Zaporizhzhya plant in the southeastern city of Enerhodar was getting dangerous every day.

 

It was captured by Russian troops at the beginning of March following an attack on Ukraine on 24 February. "Every principle of nuclear security has been violated and what is at stake is very serious and dangerous," he said. Grassi cited several security breaches at the plant, saying it was located near Russian-controlled territory where fierce fighting was going on. The physical integrity of the plant has not been respected. The IAEA chief said he and his team needed security and the immediate cooperation of Russia and Ukraine to reach the nuclear plant.

 

The possibility of an accident like Chernobyl

 

IAEA chief Rafael Grassi said, "The supply chain of equipment-spare parts here has been disrupted, so we are not sure that the plant is safe." This requires monitoring whether nuclear material is being protected or not. If its safety is not taken care of, then accidents like Chernobyl which happened in 1986 at this plant can happen. This would be extremely dangerous as the plant is about 110 km from Kyiv.

 

America imposes new sanctions on Putin's alleged girlfriend

 

The US has imposed fresh sanctions on a select few of Russia's elite. They also include Alina Kabaeva, the alleged girlfriend of Russian President Vladimir Putin. The US Treasury Department said the Biden administration has frozen former Olympic gymnast Alina's visa and has also frozen her assets. Kabaeva is also the head of a Russian media company that supports the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In June, the European Union announced a travel and property ban on him.

 

Russian attacks continue in southeast Ukraine

 

It has been six months since the Russo-Ukraine war, but the Russian army is not taking the name of stopping the attack. He launched attacks on several villages and towns in the Donetsk region on Wednesday. However, the Ukrainian army is also making tremendous efforts to recover the lost areas of Kherson. He continues to attack Russian troops.
