concern is mounting around the Zaporizhia power plant

In Ukraine, the Zaporijia nuclear power plant is at the heart of tensions. In the hands of the Russians since March, it would be the way for them to appropriate the electricity it provides, and thus to raise the fear of a power cut, according to the Ukrainian operator. “There is information that the Russian occupiers plan to stop the operation of the reactors and cut off the supply lines of the Ukrainian energy system“, worries Energoatom.

Visiting the port of Odessa, the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, warns Moscow. “Of course, Zaporizhia’s electricity is Ukrainian electricity, and it is necessary, especially during the winter, for the Ukrainian people. This principle must be fully respected“, he said. For the past few weeks, kyiv and Moscow have accused each other of bombing the power plant.
