This is what I. said about. Head of the State Inspectorate for Nuclear Regulation Oleg Korikov, the press service of the department reports.

“We have made the appropriate analysis and given its results to the IAEA. The analysis shows that the risks for ZNPP are a consequence of the seizure of the plant and the presence of Rosatom personnel and Russian military personnel here. It is possible to return the situation to a normal state of security only when the ZNPP industrial site and the city of Energodar are demilitarized “, – said Korikov.
