The dam is under Russian control and they are responsible for the destruction caused by this war.
The White House blames Russia for blowing up the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station, whose occupying contingents control the dam and this territory in the Kherson region. This was in a briefing on Wednesday, June 7, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said.
He noted that the United States continues to assess what happened at the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station.
Answering the question of journalists whether the US presidential administration has a better idea of who or what caused the collapse of the dam, Jean-Pierre insisted that the Russian Federation “should not be there.”
“And you know, this dam is under the control of Russia, and they are responsible for the destruction caused by this war. And we will do our best to support the people of Ukraine in this difficult time, ” said a White House spokesman.
He added that if the Russian Federation had not carried out a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, there would not have been a tragedy, so the responsibility for the situation lies with the Kremlin.
It was earlier reported about at least three dead due to flooding as a result of the destruction of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station.
