The corresponding resolution was signed by 26 member states of the UN. There were two matches – Russia and China, the rest abstained during the voting.
The Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency, made up of representatives of the 35 UN member states, adopted a resolution demanding that Russia cease its occupation of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. Reuters reported this on September 15.
26 states voted in favor of the resolution, two against – Russia and China, the rest abstained during the voting. According to the representative office of the Russian Federation in international organizations in Vienna, these are Burundi, Vietnam, Egypt, India, Pakistan, Senegal and the Republic of South Africa.
The document calls on Russia to “immediately cease all actions against the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant and any other nuclear facilities in and on Ukraine.”
Remember, the IAEA offers Ukraine and Russia to conclude an agreement on the invulnerability of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry responded to the IAEA’s proposal for a “ceasefire” around the ZNPP. Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolaenko said it is possible to ensure nuclear safety at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant only after it is de-occupied, demilitarized and returned under Ukrainian control.
