MOSCOW, June 6 /TASS/. Ensuring the safety of the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) amid ongoing Ukrainian shelling, the work of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) mission at the plant, and Iran’s nuclear program were the central topics at the talks between Rosatom CEO Alexey Likhachev and IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi in Kaliningrad.
The meeting was described by both sides as a "useful and open discussion," with an agreement to maintain continued dialogue.
TASS has compiled Likhachev’s key statements.
The situation regarding nuclear and radiation safety at the ZNPP remains "totally manageable and stable," but the military threat is worsening. Ukraine has intensified its shelling of civilian infrastructure and provocations. "Unfortunately, this has affected the situation at the Zaporozhye NPP and the city of Energodar. The power system has sustained damage literally every night over the last four days."
Amid the Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul and Russian President Vladimir Putin’s contacts with world leaders and US counterpart Donald Trump, "apparently, this flow of provocations and direct attacks on civilian infrastructure by the Kiev regime will increase."
